Hello Jean (if I may), I received this announcement from you, but am writing to follow-up on a completely different matter. I don’t know if your Five-College Consortium shares less commonly taught languages? I’m writing to announce a symposium we are planning on September 11th. We hope to establish this as an annual event to explore issues related to the sharing of LCTLs. We are planning two panels discussions: one on research, and one on materials and technology development. We will also report on two Mellon projects being conducted by UChicago and Michigan State, both focused on sharing less commonly taught languages. I know this is rather late notice. The meeting is all day on Monday, the 11th, and the venue is very close to O’hare, for all attendees’ convenience. There is no registration fee, and we can cover your accommodation cost, although we would ask you to cover your own travel, which we hope will be modest. Please let me know if this would be of interest. And if another individual would be a more appropriate participant, that would be fine, too.

What have we learned from teaching languages, researching and assessing language learning with technologies? What has worked well, what has not worked well? Where will technology take language teaching, research, and assessment in the future? What can technology afford us based on lessons learned? This conference will look back and ahead and encourage participants to reflect on their own use of technology for language teaching, research and assessment. NERALLT 2017 invites conference proposals that discuss lessons learned and future outlooks of teaching, researching, and assessing with technology in the following formats: · 30 Minute Individual/Group Presentation · Roundtable Discussion or Panel (30 minutes, maximum 3 presenters +15 min Q & A) · (Electronic) Poster Session · Workshop (1-2 hours, hands-on) · Lightning Round Session (5 minute presentation followed by facilitated group discussion) Guidelines for Proposals: Please submit a 300-word abstract and a 50-word summary for the program at https://goo.gl/forms/GeBNNi5wKtuh0JOf1<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__goo.gl_forms_GeBNNi5wKtuh0JOf1&d=DwMGaQ&c=cjytLXgP8ixuoHflwc-poQ&r=GtADlSQ6_ze4BuBlTw6AGOd-ItB9jUie4k-YLQhc47M&m=5-Li9ib8f3fP-Q8BtW0YmmqXsnoR2gMTWVfYDGp4uE4&s=fPk1Fjct6KFYKrmz5cNqnFrlqhHGNhqh3v-2SVnnpOc&e=> Presentation titles should not exceed 10 words.
