[HERITAGE-LIST] Request for assistance: Survey of HL programs

[Scott G. McGINNIS]

originator, Ted Jenkins, directly at theodore at cal.org.

Dear Heritage Language Colleagues:

My name is Ted Jenkins, and I am working with Dr. Joy Peyton 
at the Center for Applied Linguistics. As part of the 
Alliance for the Advancement of Heritage Languages, we are 
creating an online collection of heritage language schools 
and programs in the United States in order to provide 
information about program features to staff of programs like
yours.

We are seeking to expand our collection of program profiles 
by asking programs to complete one of our surveys, which will 
provide basic information about a program's student and 
teacher population, curricula, assessments, and support. 

Would you or someone in your program be willing to take a few 
minutes to complete the program survey?  

--If you visit our Web site 
http://www.cal.org/heritage/programs/), you can view our 
program collection and complete the survey online.  
--I could mail you a hard copy that you would fill out and 
return to me.
--I would also be willing to interview you on the phone and 
complete the survey.

Can you please let me know which would be most convenient for 
you? 

I look forward to hearing from you soon.  Thank you very much.

Sincerely yours,
Ted Jenkins
