Title: Book: Spanish in Bilingual and Multilingual Settings around the World
Body: From http://www.brill.com/spanish-bilingual-and-multilingual-settings-around-world Spanish in Bilingual and Multilingual Settings around the World By Gregory L. Thompson and Edwin M. Lamboy Published by Brill Description: This handbook is unique in its focus on bilingual theories, issues on the teaching of bilinguals, bilingual policies abroad, and current research on bilinguals as all of this related in some way to the Spanish-speaking world. There is currently no other book like it available, despite the growing number of courses teaching Spanish Bilingualism. It is anticipated that this new handbook will be of great interest to linguists, sociolinguists, language acquisitionists, as well as teachers who deal with topics relating to bilingualism as it relates to Spanish speakers around the world. Though work has been done looking at bilingualism and multilingualism, this book provides a valuable addition that deals with an area where a comprehensive work such as this is indeed lacking.

Title: Book: Computer-Assisted Language Learning
Body: From http://www.cambridge.org/us/knowledge/isbn/item6596044/Computer-Assisted%20Language%20Learning/?site_locale=en_US Computer-Assisted Language Learning: Diversity in Research and Practice Edited by Glenn Stockwell Published by the Cambridge University Press Description: Computer-assisted language learning (CALL) is an approach to teaching and learning languages that uses computers and other technologies to present, reinforce, and assess material to be learned, or to create environments where teachers and learners can interact with one another and the outside world. This book provides a much-needed overview of the diverse approaches to research and practice in CALL. It differs from previous works in that it not only surveys the field, but also makes connections to actual practice and demonstrates the potential advantages and limitations of the diverse options available. These options are based squarely on existing research in the field, enabling readers to make informed decisions regarding their own research in CALL. This essential text helps readers to understand and embrace the diversity in the field, and helps to guide them in both research and practice.

Title: New Issue of IALLT Journal for Language Learning Technologies
Body: The newest Issue of the IALLT Journal for Language Learning Technologies, a peer reviewed academic journal published by the International Association for Language Learning Technology (IALLT), is now available. The IALLT Journal is online and open-access and is available to the worldwide public at http://www.iallt.org/iallt_journal Issue 2 of Volume 42 features articles that address current issues within the field of language learning technology: interpersonal communication within a wiki environment, the use of technology to access and work with authentic materials, and an evaluation scheme for assessing the appropriateness of off-the-shelf games within a language curriculum. In the Issue’s opening article, Mimi Li argues for the application and analysis of the “Discussion” feature of a wiki site, focusing on politeness strategies that participants use in accomplishing their collaborative task. She looks at the types of politeness strategies employed by a small group of English language learners who are originally not close friends and illustrates how their politeness levels and strategies evolve as they develop online relationships as well as how the strategies apply to specific tasks. In the second article, Haiyong Liu, Pierluigi Erbaggio, Sangeetha Gopalakrishnan, and Sandra Hobbs argue for the importance of using authentic materials within both language and a culture-oriented classes, and for using instructional technology to take provide access and increase student engagement with these materials. They illustrate the use of technology in a French culture course, an Italian language course, and a Chinese language course and discuss how these materials help create an environment that is independent, social, and student-owned. Turning to multimedia games, Felix Kronenberg develops nine criteria for evaluating commercial off-the-shelf games for their appropriateness and suitability for language learning. After discussing the criteria he then applies them to three specific games and illustrates how they may or may not fit in to a language curriculum This issue concludes with a regular column by Judy Shoaf on Legal Issues & LLT. The topic is once again very timely and deals with a case currently before the Supreme Court involving the “first sale” doctrine. Since the case revolves around the country of origin of copyright protected materials, the Court’s decision may have profound consequences for accessing materials produced outside the United States. If you are interested in submitting an article for consideration in the IALLT Journal, please send all inquiries and submissions to journaleditor at iallt dot org. Soneson, D. Fall Issue (Vol. 42, No. 2) of IALLT Journal for Language Learning Technologies now available. CALICO-L listserv (CALICO-L@LISTSERV.CALICO.ORG, 12 Dec 2012).

Title: Arabic, Persian, and Turkish Language Immersion Institute
Body: From http://aptlii.global.wisc.edu The UW-Madison Arabic, Persian, and Turkish Language Immersion Institute (APTLII) is an eight-week intensive summer language immersion program for undergraduates, graduate students, and professionals. Courses are offered for academic credit at the beginner, intermediate, and advanced levels (depending on sufficient enrollment). Outside of the classroom, students commit to using their target language at all times - in their shared living space on campus, at meals, and at co-curricular activities that combine to create a language immersion experience. Each language class is equivalent to two semesters of study, with full academic year credit. Instruction is given in small groups taught by native speakers and experienced language teachers. The classes are intensive, involving a minimum of 4.5 hours contact hours Mondays through Fridays, plus extra hours for homework. In addition to formal classes, on most afternoons and evenings students participate in co-curricular activities covering a range of topics relating to the history and culture of the region. This combination of formal classes, cultural and language activities, movies, field trips, and language tables provide students with opportunities to expand their vocabulary and practice using the language in different settings.
