Your input was very beneficial to me. I have another question now. I am serving on a committee that is investigating ways to increase the "home based" international connections and collaborations that undergraduates students participate in (in other words, face to face in your town/city or virtual as opposed to study abroad). I would very much appreciate it if you could send me a note off list and let me know what kinds of projects/initiatives are going on at your institutions, for example, do some of your classes do tandem language/cultural exchanges, are you doing any international 'language across the curriculum' projects, do you know what types of international collaborations are going on between classes that are done completely in English (e.g., business or science courses), etc. Also, is there a particular model that you are following? I will be compiling this information for my committee, and will be happy to pass it on to you if you are interested. Thank you so much for your time and have a wonderful weekend, Tina -- Tina Deveny Oestreich, Ph.D. Language Learning Manager The Freedman Center in Kelvin Smith Library Case Western Reserve University 11055 Euclid Avenue Cleveland, OH 44106 (216) 368-5283 SL Avatar: Antonia Olchowy *********************************************** 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/).
