NILI is happy to announce a new online tool to share ideas and information. This email is to introduce you to the new NILI Blog! And we hope you like it and will use it.
For those new to blogs, we’ve organized it so that the newest posts come at the top. Older posts are stored lower down in the pages, and all posts are filed by categories for browsing or later reading. We have been working hard to make categories that the various communities we serve will find useful and interesting. So far we have the following: Current Literature and Research; Curriculum Corner; Feature Projects; Language Activism; Native Language Phrases; and Tech Tips. We look forward to adding more ideas under each category and building a valuable resource. If you think of other categories we might want to add we would love to know.
Our goal is to make this a group effort. NILI faculty and staff will be contributing their various ideas and expertise periodically and over time. However, we hope to also have contributions from *YOU* as well. Feel free to send us any ideas, tips, advice, or interesting things you are working on so we can include your voice to the blog. We are happy to work with you on any article ideas. We’d like to limit the postings to a few paragraphs or roughly in the 200-350 word range.
Send postings and ideas to Ross Anderson at rossa@uoregon.edu. If you are not up for an article, we hope you will at least add a comment to some of the articles in the blog.
We look forward to “seeing you” and sharing ideas online! Please visit our website for more information about NILI: http://pages.uoregon.edu/nwili/
Janne and all of the NILI team
