Italian Faculty members Chiara Montera and Cinzia Delfini have been invited by Dr. Alberta Gatti (The Graduate Center, CUNY) to co-direct the Training Modules for Text-based Language Teaching project, one of the five projects that the Center for Integrated Language Communities (CILC) will be conducting between 2022 and 2026. CILC is one of sixteen national Language Resource Centers (LRC) housed at different universities around the country and funded by a grant by the U.S. Department of Education to improve the teaching and learning of languages nationwide. The Training Modules for Text-based Language Teaching project will develop, pilot, and disseminate modules for instructors on how to integrate text-based activities into existing second and heritage language courses.
