Overview of the Project:
I am seeking a grant to develop the Online Interactive language Exercises for Introductory Chinese, a program with the objective of providing students with listening and speaking exercise, in addition to their normal written assignments. I aim to enhance the first year Chinese students' ability to listen and comprehend and to enhance speaking accuracy without an instructor. The online interactive language exercises for introductory Chinese will be based on a series of Rich Internet Applications (free for educational uses) provided by the Center for language Education and Research at Michigan State University. I am requesting $1,800 to purchase the required multimedia material and to hire a student assistant.
