Title: Intermediate Level Reading and Listening Modules for Central Asian Languages
Body: From http://www.iub.edu/~celcar/intermediate.php The Center for Languages of the Central Asian Region has launched a new series of online multimedia modules for students of Central Asian languages. The goal of the Intermediate Reading/Listening Exercises is to produce listening and reading exercises for students of Central Asian languages at the intermediate level to help build their listening and reading skills, broaden their vocabulary, enrich their appreciation of grammar, and deepen their understanding of the cultures of the region. Each module features original or adapted written and spoken texts that present language structures in authentic cultural contexts. The texts are accompanied by a series of multimedia exercises developed by our native-speaker developers. The modules are free once you have created a user profile. Currently available modules are available for Mongolian, Pashto, Tajiki, Uyghur, and Uzbek. More modules are planned for Kyrgyz, Kazakh, Turkmen, and Azerbaijani. The modules and profile creation sequence are available at http://www.iub.edu/~celcar/intermediate.php .
