13 Myths About Foreign Language Learning You Should Forget
1. Learning a language requires a special gift You don’t have to possess any special talents to engage in language learning, whatever unreliable websites and magazines might tell you. You can do anything you set your mind on; thus, the only qualities you must possess are strong will, determination, and an arduous desire to learn. Is it true, however, that we possess inclinations for specific languages – some people might be more inclined to learn German while others might be more predisposed to learning Spanish.

Incidental Teaching and Children with Autism
Incidental teaching was initially developed by researchers Hart & Risley in the late 1960's and into the 1970's (Risley, 1968; Hart & Risley, 1975). Incidental teaching is a child-directed teaching method in which the child’s interest leads instruction. The adult (teacher or parent) uses the child’s interest to encourage language. The child is then provided a model to promote the elaboration of language. Incidental teaching can be used with children who have a language delay and it has been used effectively with children with autism to promote the use of communicative language.

Films for Law Students and Lawyers
I am a bit of a Tom Cruise fan. If you liked Tom Cruise in the 1992 film “A Few Good Men,” you will like him in the legal thriller made in 1993 called “The Firm.” In the film “A Few Good Men,” Tom Cruise plays the role of Lt. Junior Grade Daniel Kaffee, who is a lawyer representing two Marines that are responsible for the death of a comrade. Who can forget the famous line “I want the truth,” and Jack Nicholson, who plays the role of Lt. Colonel Nathan Jessup who responds “You can’t handle the truth.” The term “Code Red” is used. The accused stated they were just doing their job. In the film, here you have the law and the military tied together.
