Subject:PDAs in language acquisition environment query

My name is Tim Smith and I am a teacher of Arabic at a Department of
Defense language facility. We are trying to contact any universities
that may be utilizing PDAs in a language classroom environment. We would
like to see how they are being used so that we can develop our program
to include the use of PDAs for our students. We are interested in using
this technology in the teaching of less commonly taught languages
(Arabic, to include all dialects, Persian-Farsi, Pashto and Dari).

If you utilize this technology, I would be very interested in hearing
how it is being implemented, to include any software and procedures
utilized. Also if you aren't using PDAs, could point me in the direction
of any institutions that are using them? We are in our infancy when it
comes to utilizing this technology and would very much appreciate any
help you could provide.

Thank you in advance for your time and I look forward to hearing from
you.


Regards,

Tim Smith
