================================================================  

We'd like to remind readers that the responses to queries are usually
best posted to the individual asking the question. That individual is
then strongly encouraged to post a summary to the list. This policy was
instituted to help control the huge volume of mail on LINGUIST; so we
would appreciate your cooperating with it whenever it seems appropriate.

In addition to posting a summary, we'd like to remind people that it
is usually a good idea to personally thank those individuals who have
taken the trouble to respond to the query.

To post to LINGUIST, use our convenient web form at

What is 'CEDEL2'? 
- CEDEL2 (Corpus Escrito del Español L2) is a research project at the
Universidad Autónoma de Madrid. 
- We are investigating how English-speaking people learn Spanish. 

Who can participate? 
- Learners of Spanish who have English as their mother tongue: any level
(beginner, intermediate, advanced). 
- Native speakers of Spanish. 

How can you participate? 
- You can participate online: 
http://www.uam.es/woslac/start.htm 

What can you get from it? 
- Learners: you will be emailed the Spanish grammar test results, so you
can know your level of Spanish grammar. 
- We will also send you by post a printed certificate (stamped by the
Universidad Autónoma de Madrid) stating that you have participated in our
study. 

Who has already participated? 
So far, we have received data from different institutions all over the
world, e.g.: 
- USA: Georgia State University, University of Wisconsin at Madison, Boston
University, Skidmore Collegue, Rutgers University, George Washington
University. 
- UK: Open University, Cambridge University UK, Essex University,
University of Hertfordshire, St Paul's School London, King's College London. 
- Spain: Universidad Autonoma de Madrid, St Louis University at Madrid,
Fundacion Ortega y Gasset at Madrid and Toledo, Escuela Oficial de Idiomas,
Universidad de Cantabria. 

Remember: 
- This is not an exam. 
- You will not be assessed. 
- We are simply interested in your spontaneous written Spanish language. 
- All information is anonymous and confidential.
