                Teaching Slavic Languages and Cultures
Annual Meeting of the Canadian Association of Slavists (CAS)
                            27, 28, 29 May 2000
                            University of Alberta
                           Edmonton, AB, Canada

In the year 2000 the University of Alberta will host the Congress of the Social
Sciences and Humanities. In conjunction with this event the Slavic Division of
the Department of Modern Languages and Cultural Studies will organize sessions
devoted to the various aspects of teaching Slavic languages to English-speaking
students.  These sessions will be held during the annual meeting of
the Canadian
Association of Slavists which has been scheduled for the 27, 28 and 29 of May.

The Department of Modern Languages and Cultural Studies at the University of
Alberta enters the new millennium with a strong interdisciplinary and
culturally-
oriented curriculum. We invite you to submit papers that address
theoretical and/or
practical questions concerning the cultural component of language instruction.
We are also interested in discussing the impact of new technologies
on the cultural
and second-language curriculum at the university level.  Papers devoted to
methodologies of second-language teaching and the practical
ramifications of new
theoretical models are equally welcome.

FEBRUARY 15 DEADLINE:
To facilitate the organization of panels, two electronic proposal
forms, one for
Individual Papers and one for Panels, have been posted on the site of *Canadian
Slavonic Papers* (http://www.ualberta.ca/~csp).  We encourage you
to submit whenever possible complete panel proposals. Kindly note
that a fifty-word
resume is required.  The deadline for the submission of proposals is
February 15.
It is imperative that all orders for special equipment be made at this time.

The *Congress Registration Guide* will be mailed to all members of the Canadian
Association of Slavists in the beginning of January 2000.  I urge you to check
whether your name and mailing address appear listed on the site of *Canadian
Slavonic Papers,* and to inform Dr. Gust Olson <gust.olson at ualberta.ca> by
October 25 concerning any changes. Slavists who are not members of CAS are
more than welcome to join the association.  For purposes of registration at the
Congress, the Canadian Association of Slavists is no. 56.
