Hi All,
The Grant opportunity - RFP #10358 struck me as particularly apt for the
instructor who uses www.SpanishConnector.com<http://www.SpanishConnector.com>.

What do y'all think? Here is the text of the grant opportunity:

Dear colleagues,

TalkAbroad is announcing the availability of grants funds for research on
the impact of interaction with native speakers as a required part of a
course curriculum. Research can focus on any topics of import to your
department or second language acquisition but particular attention will be
given to proposals focused on the 2015 Areas of Interest:

  - The impact of interaction with native speakers on oral proficiency
  levels for students at the novice and intermediate oral proficiency levels.
  - The impact of interaction with native speakers on program enrollment
  numbers.
  - The impact of remote interaction with native speakers on oral
  proficiency as compared to other methods (study abroad programs, on-campus
  speaking opportunities, etc.)

Assistance through both in-kind TalkAbroad access and cash reimbursement
for expenses are available.

Details and request for proposal are available at talkabroad.com/grants<http://talkabroad.com/grants>
<https://talkabroad.com/index/view_grants/99999999>

Feel free to email me personally at [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> with any
questions.

The curriculum and short term research grants are $3000 and $5000
respectively, which definitely covers some amount of the total student cost
of www.spanishconnector.com<http://www.spanishconnector.com>


Talk to You All Soon,
