NCSSFL-ACTFL Can-Do Statements

NCSSFL-ACTFL Can-Do Statements for Use with LinguaFolio®

The 2017 NCSSFL-ACTFL Can-Do Statements for Communication and Intercultural Competence represent the culmination of a collaborative effort between NCSSFL and the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages (ACTFL), to connect NCSSFL’s LinguaFolio® with ACTFL’s Proficiency Guidelines 2012 and the ACTFL Performance Descriptors for Language Learners. The combining of these three documents into a single, cohesive set of statements helps clarify how a language learner’s performance points toward a specific proficiency level.
