Mission Statement
During the more than 60 years of its existence, The Canadian Modern Language Review/La Revue canadienne des langues vivantes has evolved from an Ontario-centered journal containing mainly classroom-based teaching strategies and resources to a Canada-wide, bilingual, refereed scholarly publication of national scope and international repute. The CMLR/RCLV serves members of the teaching profession, administrators and researchers interested in all levels of English and French as second languages and, in addition, those interested in native and other modern, international, or heritage language programs and issues.
The goals of CMLR/RCLV include the following:
• an emphasis on Canadian programs in Canadian educational environments;
• an emphasis on the teaching and learning of French-as-a-second-language;
• attention to a balanced treatment of theory, practice and pedagogy, all
viewed from a variety of perspectives;
• inclusion of content relating to language in minority contexts;
• attention to high standards that will ensure the credibility of the
CMLR/RCLV as a scholarly journal through the refereeing of submissions for
articles by both recognized experts in the subject area of the article and by peers;
• regular publication of a substantial number of articles written in English
and French.

Within each issue, you will find:
• Peer-reviewed articles
• Insightful book and software reviews
• Calendar of Forthcoming Events
Research-based articles on second language pedagogy in "Focus on the Classroom"

Editors— Larry Vandergrift and Laura Collins
Larry Vandergrift is Associate Professor in the Second Language Institute of the Faculty of Arts at the University of Ottawa where he teaches courses in FSL, ESL and second language acquisition. He has extensive experience in teaching FSL at the secondary school level and in curriculum development. He has conducted research studies related to core French curricula in Canada as well as the National Core French Assessment Project. His current research interests include second language listening comprehension, listening processes, learning strategies and the role of metacognition and motivation in the self-regulation of language learning.

Laura Collins is an associate professor at the TESL Centre in the Department of Education at Concordia University and the Applied Linguistics theme group leader at the Centre for the Study of Learning and Performance. Her research interests are informed by her years spent teaching second languages, and include the acquisition of verb morphology in a second language, time-on-task effects (how different concentrations of instructional time affect language learning), and peer interaction in bilingual school contexts. Laura heads a funded research team at Concordia (ALERT: Acquiring Language Efficiently: Research and Teaching) which is investigating the effects of the complex interaction of language sounds, word meanings, and grammatical forms on language acquisition in classroom settings. She teaches courses on second language acquisition, pedagogical grammar, and cross-linguistic influence.
