The national summit also aims to acquaint teachers with evolving research paradigms in linguistic scholarship; expose teachers to recent developments in learning theories and praxes; familiarize teachers with innovative teaching techniques and creative pedagogies in the language and literature classrooms; and engage teachers in discussions on the language and literature aspects of the recently institutionalized K-12 curriculum.
