What if the best way to plan a language course is to start at the end? In this episode, we explore backward design — a powerful approach that begins with desired outcomes and builds every lesson, task, and assessment around them. Learn how to align teaching goals with real-world performance, create authentic assessments, and design with purpose. Whether you’re crafting a new syllabus or rethinking your classroom practice, this episode will help you plan backward to move learners forward.
