Mission Statement >References: <[log in to unmask]> >In-Reply-To: <[log in to unmask]> Thanks again to all of you who shared language center mission statements with me, both here on LLTI and offline. If you're considering developing one of your own, I encourage you to do so. For us its' been a productive endeavor, one that will help guide us as we plan an update of our center. In the interest of sharing, here's our new mission statement: The Language Learning Resource Center (LLRC) supports the learning and teaching of languages, literatures and cultures by students and faculty of the Department of Modern Languages & Literatures and the wider Loyola community. The Center provides multi-media materials and equipment, personal assistance, a welcoming physical environment and the online tools to enhance learning and teaching. A pivotal aspect of the center$E2Aos mission is to provide leadership and faculty training in the creative and effective application of technology in modern language instruction and research. Best to all, David Pankratz Loyola University Chicago *********************************************** LLTI is a service of IALLT, the International Association for Language Learning (http://iallt.org/), and The Consortium for Language Teaching and Learning (http://www.languageconsortium.org/).
