Dear Colleagues:

Please consider submitting a proposal to present at the upcoming Symposium on  
Teaching and Learning Indigenous Languages of Latin America (STLILLA).  The 2011  
STLILLA gathering is scheduled for Oct. 30 - Nov. 2, 2011 at the University of  
Notre Dame and will feature presentations, panels and workshops on the teaching  
and learning of indigenous languages with a special focus on emerging technologies.  
  Access the call for proposals here: http://kellogg.nd.edu/projects/quechua/STLILLA/call.shtml
The 2011 Symposium on Teaching and Learning Indigenous Languages of Latin America  
(STLILLA 2011) will bring together instructors, practitioners, activists, indigenous  
leaders, scholars and learners of indigenous languages.  The symposium will focus  
on research and pedagogy related to the diverse languages and cultures of indigenous  
populations in Latin America and the Caribbean.

This second symposium will build on the accomplishments of the 2008 Symposium  
on Teaching Indigenous Languages of Latin America (STILLA), the first initiative  
of this scope in the world, which resulted in the formation of the Association  
for Teaching and Learning Indigenous Languages of Latin America (ATLILLA).

These symposia aim to engage participants in a hemispheric dialogue and also to  
serve as a forum for networking and exchanging ideas, experiences and research  
on pedagogical, methodological, and practical issues from cross-disciplinary perspectives.  
Active listening and discussion enable professionals from around the world to  
interact with leading experts in the fields of education, language policy and  
planning, theoretical linguistics, Latin American studies, applied linguistics,  
anthropology, sociolinguistics, linguistic anthropology, and informatics. Through  
multiple venues such as keynotes addresses, special panels, interactive workshops,  
round table discussions, poster sessions, and technological tools showcases, the  
symposia contribute to the teaching, learning, dissemination, maintenance, and  
revitalization of indigenous languages and cultures of the region.

Sincerely,

Lance Askildson
