Related Work at the University of Minnesota

The faculty, staff, and graduate students who work with the Center for Advanced Research on Language Acquisition at the University of Minnesota actively publish and present on many issues related to CARLA’s mission to improve language teaching and learning. Though these scholarly efforts are not funded through CARLA, many of them directly and indirectly impact the work of the Center. In this section, we list some of the recent work done by active members of CARLA. Though by no means an exhaustive list, it highlights the depth and breadth of the work being conducted at the University of Minnesota, providing fertile ground for the growth of CARLA’s activities.
