It's not dead yet! She says: "the old version of the software is still available and downloadable free of charge from LARC's website. It will allow you as the author to do all that you describe. We are in the process of working on a brand new version, but the old one is still working. The link is http://larcnet.sdsu.edu/teacher.php?page=downloads. Download the manual and read this first." She also says: "We are making the newest version compatible with the e-books concept, internet based, so that people can download to their PDAs or phones." :) Regards, Shannon Shannon Johnston * Instructional Designer Teaching and Educational Development Institute * Indonesian Instructor (beginner & advanced IFL) School of Languages and Comparative Cultural Studies University of Queensland, QUEENSLAND Australia 4106 T: +61 7 336 51550 E: [log in to unmask] E: [log in to unmask] -----Original Message----- From: Language Learning and Technology International Information Forum [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of LLTI-Editor Sent: Thursday, 6 December 2007 3:59 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: #8711.2 (!) "shell" for reading text GALT (Glossing Authentic Language Texts) was an IBM-based template developed by Mary Ann Lyman-Hager; she was at Penn State then, but is now Director of the Language Acquisition Resource Center (LARC) at San Diego State ([log in to unmask]). She created GALT versions of 21 French texts -- poems, songs, stories, the first chapter of Une Vie de Boy -- which are (were?) sold by Wiley & Sons -- CD Rom, I think -- called "A L'aventure". GALT was a sophisticated template that allowed teachers to create all the annotations you describe, but I don't think it's still available. A similar template called ART, which is web-based, has been created at the Yale Center for Language Study as part of a suite of nine web-based templates funded by the Dept. of Education International Research and Studies program. Go to http://cls.yale.edu/, and under Technology click on COMET. You'll find information and sample activities for the templates and contact information if you want to follow up on them.
