Title: Business German Texts
Body: A recent request on the AATG listserv for recommended business German texts received the following replies. ---- Alan Lacy asked about texts for Business German. The Goethe-Institut has a page with links to several programs that may include textbook suggestions: http://www.goethe.de/ins/us/chi/lhr/we/deindex.htm I've taught with Michael Hager's text before and really like the CD with dialogues about the American doing a practicum in Germany, but my students found the book confusing as a result of changes the publisher insisted on. I wish the CD were sold separately. I also like the Kontakt Deutsch series very much for this level, although its numbers are outdated and the amounts are in DM. I think the videos that accompany the text could and should be used with any beginning Business German course. Here's the URL: http://www.langenscheidteduc.com/catalog/advanced_search_result.php?keywords=Kontakt+Deutsch>http://www.langenscheidteduc.com/catalog/advanced_search_result.php?keywords=Kontakt+Deutsch For students who are majoring in German and business or economics, you could look at Langenscheidt's Kommunikation Wirtschaftdeutsch, but it's probably too difficult for the sixth semester unless the students have a business background. Klett also has two levels of Unternehmen Deutsch, one for complete beginners and one that is more accessible, in my opinion, than the advanced Langenscheidt text. Many people also like a text call Dialog Beruf, but I'm not personally familiar with it. Barbara Patten at mailto:ibis@ibiservice.com carries most of these texts and will let you order them, look at them, and then return them for a refund if you decide not to use them. She can also give you advice about what others are buying, which is a good indication of what works. Leech, T. Re: [AATG-L] Business German texts. American Association of Teachers of German listserv. AATG@listserv.iupui.edu (30 Mar. 2006). ---- Gudrun Clay: Geschäftsdeutsch. An Introduction to Business German Wenn auch das Material so langsam aber sicher alt wird, kann man immer noch sehr gut mit dem Text arbeiten, denn die Didaktik ist ausgezeichnet. Wehage, F.J.

Title: Language-Enhanced Educational Technology
Body: From http://workshops.inf.ed.ac.uk/LEET Workshop on Language-enabled Educational Technology August 28th, 2006 Riva del Garda, Italy Description Intelligent computer-based educational technology offers the possibility for large numbers of students to receive individualized instruction in school and university education as well as on-the-job training. Incorporating language technology in educational applications offers the promise of a more natural interaction with the learner, which many researchers believe will lead to higher levels of motivation and, ultimately, more effective learning experiences. Although there are conferences devoted to intelligent educational technology and natural language processing individually, no major European conference has brought these strands of research together explicitly, and it is difficult to gather a critical mass of researchers with expertise in the range of topics needed to address the research questions posed in this area . The purpose of this workshop is to bring researchers working on intelligent learning environments together with researchers working in natural language processing to build the community and foster new research in the area. We invite researchers developing learning environments who would like to explore adding language capability to them, researchers in natural language processing who are or would like to apply their theories or technology to educational applications, and researchers developing ontologies, reasoning systems, or knowledge acquisition platforms that could be exploited by intelligent, individualized instructional systems. Topics of interest for the workshop include, but are not strictly limited to: - Interpretation of students' natural language input - Generation of individualized natural language feedback - Representation and reasoning to support NL-enabled learning systems - Integrating natural language into existing educational applications - Detecting affect in student utterances or generating affective feedback - Integration of language with other modalities (e.g., pointing) in educational contexts - Natural language interaction with open/inspectable learner models - Authoring tools for intelligent language enabled learning sysems - Evaluating the impact of natural language capabilities in educational applications For more information, visit http://workshops.inf.ed.ac.uk/LEET .

Title: AP Spanish Summer Programs for Teachers & Students
Body: From http://centromundolengua.com/approgram.html MundoLengua has partnered with Mr. Ken Stewart of Chapel Hill High School in Chapel Hill, NC to organize the program. Mr. Stewart is the Spanish content editor for AP Central and has been an AP reader, table leader, and a College Board consultant for 14 years. He has conducted over 60 AP workshops and summer institutes since 1992 and has been named Teacher of the Year on several occasions by different language associations. Unlike other programs that only provide general practice in the Spanish language with courses taught by native Spaniards not trained in the specific functioning of the AP exams, MundoLenguas program is the result of a unique partnership between a nationally recognized College Board consultant with ample experience in the specifics of the AP exam and a private Spanish school with native professors and broad experience carrying out similar language immersion programs in Spain. Students with an advanced level of Spanish who are preparing for the AP Spanish Language and AP Spanish Literature exams can expect to gain a solid understanding of the exams while perfecting their overall Spanish skills and enjoying Spanish culture. Teachers who accompany groups of 12 students will receive the AP Professional Development Workshop during July gratis (with full room and board in a Spanish family, individual room). Teachers will also receive a travel stipend of $800. Program dates: June 11-24 and July 2-15, 2006 For more information, visit http://centromundolengua.com/approgram.html .

Title: Middlebury College Summer Immersion Programs
