The National Council of Organizations
of Less Commonly Taught Languages
(NCOLCTL) is pleased to announce the awarding of mini-grants to the following individuals and organizations: American Council of Teachers of Russian (ACTR) Materials Development in Support of the Alla Nedashkivska, Instructional Materials for Advanced Ukrainian North American Association for Celtic Language Teachers (NAACLT) Celtic Language Field Survey and Analysis North American Association of Teachers of Czech (NAATC) Guest Speaker at the International Roundtable
on Czech Language Teaching Methods Ellen Rafferty, Website of Indonesian Photographic Images Faye Valtadoros, Professional Development Support (The Intensive Training Program for Teaching of
Japanese) Etsuyo Yuasa, The Individualized Instruction Materials for Advanced Japanese While the purposes for which the grants will be
used vary, the principal criterion for every award was its use for a project
that promotes field building in the Less Commonly Taught Languages (LCTLs).
Each of these one-time only grants is for $2000 or less. All awardees
have provided a significant personal and/or institutional contribution
to the success of the proposed project. The grant recipients are required
to submit a final report describing how the grant was used, the results
of the project, and a copy of any product stemming from the project. Final reports that recipients have submitted
electronically may be accessed by clicking on the author’s name. To the extent that Council resources permit, the Council hopes to be able
to announce similar annual mini-grant competitions in future years to
continue to provide seed money support for educators and scholars in the
LCTLs. It is anticipated that competition for such grants will henceforth
be announced in the spring, with the results known by the end of May.
