TitleCARLA's Less Commonly Taught Languages (LCTL) Project
Body
From : CARLA

Since 1993, CARLA's Less Commonly Taught Languages (LCTL) Project has worked to support LCTL instruction with a variety of opportunities and tools which include: a series of electronic mailing lists for LCTL instructors; a database of where LCTLs are taught at K-12 and post-secondary institutions around the U.S.; and a series of summer institutes and workshops specifically designed for LCTL instructors. In addition to these initiatives, the LCTL project has created two web-based collections of royalty-free materials: the Virtual Picture Album [VPA] and the Virtual Audio Video Archives [VAVA] and has also begun to create an array of lessons plans and activities designed to utilize the VPA, VAVA, and other internet resources.

To augment its support of LCTL teachers, the LCTL Project will be awarding grants of up to $1,000 for the development and submission of sharable material for teaching a LCTL. The materials will be used to expand the LCTL Projects growing collection of web-based instructional materials.
