As proposed to the CATESOL Board of Directors October 12, 2012

# data[].attributes.body
To provide a forum for CATESOL member ESL professionals involved or interested in teaching English pronunciation to:

share experience, methods, strategies and techniques

share resources—including books, recorded audio and video, computer programs, web sites, and other technology

discuss all of the above as well as the relationship of theory to practice

review textbooks and discuss relevant journal and newsletter articles

share information from conferences and workshops

To provide interest group and CATESOL members with vehicles for communication about the teaching of pronunciation and related skills, including a listserv, web site, and possibly blogs and/or wikis

To provide CATESOL conference participants opportunities to network and learn about everything in 1 above by:

conducting rap sessions at regional and chapter conferences and workshops

conducting networking and business meetings as well as interest group-sponsored sessions at annual conferences

To promote efforts to improve pronunciation teaching skills and encourage members to submit conference session proposals

To promote the teaching of pronunciation in all levels and classes, not only in specialized pronunciation classes.

To advocate for the professional concerns of members related to the teaching of pronunciation and related skills

Through elected representatives, to convey the needs and interests of members to the CATESOL Board of Directors and the concerns of the Board to their members

At the request of conference chairs:

recruit readers of annual and possibly regional conference proposals

provide a list of speakers and/or consultants

In compliance with the Procedures for establishment of interest groups, as written in CATESOL Standing Rule 12, Membership, 9. Interest Groups, A. Rationale and procedures for establishment and operation, the petition was submitted, along with signatures of 37 members and a list of ten pronunciation-related sessions conducted at CATESOL 2012 in Oakland.
