CARLA Summer Institute Funding Opportunities

For instructors of French and Spanish


The PACE Project will provide funding for up to ten instructors of French and Spanish at the University of Minnesota to attend one of the 2015 CARLA summer institutes. These one-week institutes run from July 13 to July 31 and cover a variety of topics including second language acquisition basics for teachers, classroom assessment development, content-based instruction, and implementing technology in the second language classroom.

Funding will be awarded to up to ten instructors on a first-come, first-served basis until April 3, 2015. Each French or Spanish instructor may apply for funding to only one institute. Please note that some institutes fill up quickly. You can indicate your interest through this form.

Questions about this special funding can be directed to Stephanie Treat at treat002@umn.edu.

The PACE Project is funded by a grant from The Language Flagship.

For LCTL instructors

CARLA offers instructors of Less Commonly Taught Languages (LCTL) at the University of Minnesota a special scholarship to attend one of the 2015 CARLA summer institutes. These one-week institutes run from July 13 to July 31 and cover a variety of topics including second language acquisition basics for teachers, classroom assessment development, content-based instruction, and implementing technology in the second language classroom. Instructors are required to pay a non-refundable $25 commitment fee, but the balance of the institute cost will be paid by CARLA -a value up to $325!

A limited number of scholarships will be awarded to current University of Minnesota LCTL instructors on a first-come, first-served basis until April 3, 2015. Each instructor may apply for funding to only one institute. Please note that some institutes fill up quickly. You can indicate your interest through this form.

Questions about this special funding can be directed to Karin Larson at larso205@umn.edu.
