Articles and Book Chapters
The Center disseminates the products of its work to the
foreign language teaching profession and the public by various means
of publication. Besides this World Wide Web site, the Center also distributes
information through:
The Educational Resources Information Center (ERIC). ERIC,
a decentralized nationwide network sponsored by the U.S. Department of
Education, is used to report on projects prepared by teachers as a result
of their participation in Center institutes, and to publish Center projects
and the Center evaluation reports. Examples include:
Frazier, J., & Sloan, M. (1995). El
ano nuevo en Costa Rica. ERIC Document No. ED 390
279.
Thompson. L. (Compiler). (1995). K-8
Foreign Language Assessment: A Bibliography. Washington,
DC: ERIC Clearinghouse on Languages and Linguistics.

K-12 Foreign Language Resource Center Evaluation Report. ERIC

Professional Journals, Reports, and Book Chapters. Research
articles and reports by Center leaders and teacher participants are published
in professional journals and as chapters in books. Examples include:
