Title: German Online Picture Dictionary
Body: http://www.washjeff.edu/capl The free online picture dictionary CAPL has reached 2,000 entries thanks to the support of German teachers around the world. Particular thanks go to Dr. Nikhil Sathe who contributed his images and expertise to expand the Austrian section of CAPL. Also thanks to Lizz Caplan-Carbin for being one of the first to send in a large number of submissions. All images in CAPL are organized by topic, searchable, of very high quality, and 100% license free for educational use. The authentic pictures are all taken in German speaking countries, are not staged photos, and reflect a wide variety of objects and places. If you have any digital image collections and are willing to share with the world, feel free to contact me. We would love to have more regional diversity, images from Switzerland, the northern parts of Germany and small town images. We would also like to expand basic school vocabulary and have image collections related to sporting events and clubs. While this project works best at the elementary level in the German classroom, there are applications at the advanced levels as well. If you have any ideas for future expansion, usage tips, or see a typo, just send an email to capl@washjeff.edu Thanks for your support and I hope to be able to bring more public-domain electronic resources to the German teaching community in the future. Shaughnessy, M. [AATG-L] German Image Database -Thanks! American Association of Teachers of German listserv. AATG@listserv.iupui.edu (9 May 2005).
