a great way to get information about CoLang. The institute offers great
workshops in language and technology, among others subjects. Our own Phil Cash

Institute on Collaborative Language Research will take place at The University
of Texas at Arlington in June and July 2014. CoLang (previously known as
InField) allows students, faculty, and indigenous community members to acquire
or refine cutting edge skills in language documentation, revitalization and
field linguistics, to network with established international experts in these
areas, and to gain hands-on experience in working with endangered and
underdescribed language communities through field methods offerings. An
exciting development this year is our partnership with the Linguistic Society
of America. Part of this co-sponsorship includes LSA scholarships to CoLang
2014, creating expanded opportunities for academic training in language
documentation and field linguistics for (and by) a diverse group of indigenous
community members,academic linguists and those involved in a wide variety of
language documentation and revitalization activities. </span></p>

session, from June 16-27, 2014, consists of workshops in aspects of language
documentation and revitalization and it costs $1450, which covers registration,
room and board. Many attendees stay on for an additional four-weeks, which
includes enrollment in a four-week field methods class, as well as the two
weeks of workshops. Costs for the entire six-week session is $4300
(registration, room and board). The field methods classes give participants a
firsthand experience in working with speakers of an endangered language to
document and analyze the language. With three to four field methods classes
scheduled, CoLang 2014 will be able to serve a large number of interested
participants. This year, for the first time, we plan to offer a Spanish-medium
field methods class featuring a language of Mexico. We should be announcing the
languages for the field methods courses by February 1, 2014. </span></p>
