Subject: Morley Scholarship
The following is another opportunity for teachers of second language
learning and teaching to get financial support for their favorite
projects:
Morley Scholarship for Studies in Second Language Learning and
Teaching.
In 1994, the English Language Institute (ELI) at the University of
Michigan initiated the Morley Scholarship Fund to provide financial
support for those wishing to carry out research projects related to second
language theory and pedagogy, in recognition of Professor Morley's
outstanding contributions to language teaching pedagogy for more than
three decades at the University of Michigan. In the Fall of 1999, it is
expected that 3-5 awards of between $2,000 and $4,000 will be given.
These scholarships are offered to defray living expenses (and in
exceptional cases travel costs) for those who would like to make use of
the ELI's resources to carry out some study or writing projects in second
language learning and teaching. These projects are not restricted to ESL,
but may also involve other languages.
Applications are welcomed from anybody with R&D interests that fall within
the scope of the Morley Scholarship Fund. Applications are particularly
welcomed from faculty and students from outside the United States, from
MITESOL members, and from students studying at one of Michigan's
universities.
Please send applications to John Swales, Director, ELI, The University of
Michigan, 3000A NUB, Ann Arbor, MI 48109-1057 by December 1, 1999.
Applications should consist of a resume and a 1-2 page application letter
explaining the nature and value of the proposed activity. Applicants
usually sand a better chance of success if they propose using their time
in Ann Arbor to advance a manageable project significantly towards or to a
conclusion. General exploratory schemes of work are usually not funded.
Applicants also need to be in a position to work largely on their own.
