Title | Center for Educational Resources in Culture, Language and Literacy Enters New Round of Projects at Title VI Language Resource Center |
Body | The Center for Educational Resources in Culture, Language and Literacy (CERCLL) has recently been awarded a third Title VI Language Resource Center grant to develop resources for the teaching and learning of foreign languages at K-16 levels across the U.S. Ten projects will be funded by the grant during the 2014-2018 cycle. Among them are projects focusing on innovative pedagogies and materials, including the creation of teacher manuals for developing second language literacy through digital gaming and a web-based materials archive of authentic interactions between Chinese language learners and their peers during study abroad. CERCLL will continue to offer a number of outreach activities for K-16 educators to enable them to better integrate a range of linguistic and culture perspectives into their classrooms. The Center’s highly successful, biennial Intercultural Competence Conference, which draws scholars and teachers from all over the world, will continue with fifth and sixth iterations in 2016 and 2018. Beginning this fall, CERCLL hosted the first hybrid symposium on Digital Literacies in the L2 Classroom; based on the high levels of interest generated by this event, two further symposia are planned for the new grant cycle.
