Letter from the EDITORS
Dear SPLISers, We are quickly approaching the end of 2013, and many schools have recently begun their new 2013/2014 academic year. We hope yours were happy and fruitful and that you are off to a productive start to your academic years! We have another wonderful newsletter to share with you. This volume contains a nice variety of articles that we think will be of interest to you including topics such as the effects of self-monitoring, strategies for developing independent learning, achieving accuracy in speaking, and ideas for integrating video into our classrooms. As always, we would like to encourage you to share your research and teaching with others in our group! Contact us for more information. Good luck with your end-of-year pursuits! Amanda Huensch & Lauren Waters Co-editors of the SPLIS newsletter Amanda Huensch is an assistant professor in the Applied Linguistics/ TESL M.A. Program and the Second Language Acquisition and Instructional Technology (SLAIT) PhD program at the University of South Florida.
