Language Teaching Specialization (LTS) is the applied linguistics master's program at the University of Oregon, and CASLS and LTS enjoy a strong collaborative relationship. Julie Sykes, CASLS director and LTS faculty member, leads a seminar on intercultural pragmatics that culminates in a capstone collection of resources that students develop for teachers to use in teaching pragmatics with language learners. In addition, CASLS employs multiple former LTS students, supports current LTS students through graduate teaching fellowships, and provides internships/part-time employment for LTS students working on various projects including game design, assessment, and SLA research. This month, we will profile the relationship between CASLS and LTS and will provide resources from LTS.
