During the summers of 1995 and 1996, Viviane Edwards and Nancy Pynch Worthylake traveled to Estonia to conduct workshops entitled "Effective Language Teaching: Principles and Practice." These sessions allowed participants to examine elements of the National Core French Study and multidimensional curriculum development in an effort to create unit plans for the teaching of Estonian as a second language.

Topics in this session included assessment, process writing, teaching grammar in the communicative/experiential context and using video in the second language classroom.
