This new DCAL seminar formed on October 25th 2007 as an ongoing forum for informed discussion of teaching and learning languages and cultural competencies. Anyone at Dartmouth interested in these topics is welcome to join us; simply e-mail Tom Luxon, Doug Moody or Nancy Canepa.
Our inaugural discussion focused on the May 2007 MLA report entitled "Foreign Languages and Higher Education: New Structures for a Changed World." Future plans include invited speakers, discussion of literature on the subject of language learning and cultural competency and discussion of possible innovations at Dartmouth.
