>Subject: Use of LearningSpace in the teaching of foreign language

I am professor of French and chair of the department of modern languages
at Norwich University, a small, private university in Northfield, VT.  I
have been asked to have our faculty offer their beginning language
classes with Learning Space (software prepared by Lotus) as an
interactive medium.  We have no experience here with this software.  I am
trying to contact professors who have used this software to determine if
it is what we need.  Right now the university seems to be imposing this
on us, yet no one seems to know if it can even accommodate diacritics.

I would appreciate any information you may have on this topic or contacts
whom you think would be useful to us.  We would especially appreciate a
workshop where we could learn how to apply this software so that it works
for students of language.

Thank you.

Dr. Frances Chevalier
