PACE Articles and Resources for Further Learning
PACE Articles and Resources for Further Learning
Here are five resources to learn more about PACE (Presentation, Attention, Co-Construction, Extension) lessons.
(1) From the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages (ACTFL):
Guiding Principles in Language Learning: Teaching Grammar as a Concept in Context
Here's a graphic that I made based on the ACTFL guidance on "Teaching Grammar as a Concept in Context"
(2) ACTFL discussion thread with a link to a very useful document by Robert Oliver from The College of William & Mary
Here’s a link to the document
(3) Resources from Kentucky Teacher: Core practices: Teach grammar as a concept and use it in context
(4) Here are some scholarly articles you can access through JSTOR (you might need to have a subscription or pay to read/download):
- BLAD, ALESSIA, et al. “Italian Culture through Authentic Advertisements. Articulation and Assessment of Student Learning with PACE.” Italica, vol. 88, no. 1, 2011, pp. 1–27.
JSTOR, www.jstor.org/stable/23070855. - (b) Adair-Hauck, Bonnie, and Richard Donato. “The PACE Model-Actualizing the Standards through Storytelling: ‘Le Bras, La Jambe Et Le Ventre.’” The French Review, vol. 76, no. 2, 2002, pp. 278–296.
JSTOR, www.jstor.org/stable/3132709. - (c) Adair-Hauck, Bonnie, and Richard Donato. “The PACE Model: A Story-Based Approach to Meaning and Form for Standards-Based Language Learning.” The French Review, vol. 76, no. 2, 2002, pp. 265–276.
JSTOR, www.jstor.org/stable/3132708
(5) Here are my own suggestions on “Language Study Days” (excerpted from Stepping Stones Edition Zero) and the Word-Off (excerpted from Stepping Stones Foundations) which are ways I have found address required grammar and vocab in a more engaging, long-lasting, and brain-friendly way.
