We’re lucky in the Seattle area to have community colleges and private language schools that offer excellent classes. But for those looking for less of a commitment in time or money, there are other ways for travelers to practice and learn.

Title: Sign Language Courses Are Increasingly Popular in U.S. Colleges
Body: From http://www.insidebayarea.com/breaking-news/ci_23159213/sign-language-courses-college-increasingly-popular Sign language courses in U.S. colleges increasingly popular By Katy Murphy Oakland Tribune May 2, 2013 Every year, more college students in the U.S. are learning a new language without uttering a word. American Sign Language has become one of the most popular language classes, ranking fourth in the latest Modern Language Association Survey -- and nearly shoving German from third place. The number of students taking the language has risen by more than 50 percent in the past decade. In 1990, few U.S. colleges taught it. Now, the study of American Sign Language is attracting students in fields such as health care, education and linguistics, in addition to those motivated by personal reasons or curiosity. Interest has been building over the more than two decades since the American Disabilities Act passed, requiring hospitals and agencies to communicate effectively with the deaf and hard of hearing and banning workplace discrimination against people with disabilities.

Title: Native Languages Resource Directory
Body: From http://www.ilinative.org/directory/index.php?title=Main_Page Indigenous Language Institute’s Native Languages Resource Directory is a list of Language Programs, Organizations, and Funding Sources that promote revitalization, stabilization and documentation of indigenous languages. This online Directory is an updated version of the hardcopy that was first published in 1998, and since that time, the number of programs and organizations that work towards language revitalization have increased manifold. The data in the new Directory includes updates to existing programs as well as entries of newly established ones. The purpose of the Directory is to make it easier for users to contact each other, to find resources relevant to users, and to facilitate networking among language workers. Each entry will have annotations describing the type of program and projects. There are multiple ways to find information using the Search function. ILI’s Language Resource Directory is a “work in progress” because: ILI invites all language programs, organizations and funders from all continents to include their information in the Directory; The Directory enables those who are listed to update information about their organizations and programs; and ILI continues to gather and enter data on new programs, organizations and funding sources to include in the Directory. The Directory is linked to the Endangered Languages Project (ELP), which is a worldwide online resource for language revitalization and documentation. This worldwide resource language samples, and it is a site where you can share your language information.
