CAPE Teacher Talk was started as part of CAPE follow-up activities to continue ties with CAPE alumni and those who are interested in professional development in English teaching. It is hoped that this would increase our bond and aloha among former participants, and that the information in the Talk would help our alumni and friends/members review what they know and deepen their understanding of issues of interest in the ESL field.
