| Title | ANVILL: A National Virtual Language Lab |
| Body | From https://anvill.uoregon.edu/anvill2 The Yamada Language Center at the University of Oregon has opened the doors on ANVILL 2.0, a much-improved improved version of the "speech-centric" web-based software they have been developing in collaboration with the Center for Applied Second Language Studies and duber dot com. If you've worked with other open source content management systems (Moodle, Blackboard, etc), then creating web-based lessons with ANVILL should come easily. The speech tools are designed to replace some of the traditional speaking activities of the "language lab"; if you have used Wimba or Voicethread, or similar streaming media-based tools, you'll know what we're talking about. ANVILL's advantage is that it is non-commercial and free. We encourage you to check it out. We supply the servers and the storage space. Teachers can begin creating courses and taking advantage of its tools as soon as they sign up for an account. They manage their own enrollments. The ANVILL project is particularly interested in working with K-12 teachers who are interested in partnering with other schools around the country (and who don't mind learning with us as we further develop the software).
