Dear Colleagues,

AATA and the University of Arizona are pleased to announce the  
launching of a national Arabic Poetry Recitation Competition.  
Students in their second, third or fourth semester of  Modern  
Standard Arabic classes at the college level are invited to recite  
Arabic poems during the 2 week period of April 24th - May 5th.  
Students will submit their recitations by logging onto the OLE board  
(Online Learning Environment) where they can record an audio and  
video clip of their recitation. Details of the competition rules and  
procedures and instructions for use of the OLE board are available  
at: http://blog.ltc.arizona.edu/arabicpoetry/
This site also contains a number of MP3 recordings of poems that  
students may select from for the competition. We look forward to  
receiving your students' submissions.
Teachers with students who intend to participate in the competition  
should send an e-mail to Martha Schulte-Nafeh at  
marthas at u.arizona.edu requesting an account user ID and password  
which their students will need to log on to the OLE board to recite  
their poems.
We hope that many of you will encourage your students to participate.

Peace, Martha
