<p class="MsoNormal">Dear colleagues,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am teaching a course on language endangerment and revitalization for which I am looking for guest speakers who can speak about promising practices in indigenous language teaching and learning. I have some funds for travel and accommodation
to Lethbridge, Alberta.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am particularly interested in inviting people who are involved in immersion and dual language programs in schools or who work with communities and families to promote the language outside of the school setting or who have experience with
Master-Apprentice type programs.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">At the University of Lethbridge we are also beginning to look into ways in which we might restructure the Blackfoot language program in the near future. In that context I am looking for information on promising or successful Master-Apprentice
programs, in particular programs that are integrated into university level degree programs where participants are able to earn course credit for their language work. I would like to invite someone who could speak about their experience in this area not only
to talk to my class but also to help me present ideas to the faculty. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In terms of timing, the course runs this semester on Monday afternoons from January until early April. A date in February or March would probably work best, but other possibilities can be explored as well.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Any suggestions gratefully received!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
