Blog discontinued

August 25, 2022

Dear Open Up subscribers and visitors,

After 12 productive years as a National Foreign Language Resource Center (2010-2022), COERLL was not refunded for the current Title VI grant cycle. However, we are pleased to announce that COERLL will continue to share Open Educational Resources created by faculty at the University of Texas at Austin. That means that you will continue to have “open access” to all of our OER. Unfortunately, due to staff reductions, we must discontinue our blog, but we will archive it for your reference. The bottom line is this: we are not going away, and we hope you won’t either. Together, we will continue our mission of “opening up” language learning!

Browse posts by clicking on the archive tab (main menu) or click on one of the topics in the side column.

You can keep up with our new resources and news by signing up for our COERLL email updates:

Join COERLL’s Language OER Network (LOERN) to be featured as a OER ambassador, OER creator or OER user:
https://community.coerll.utexas.edu/
(At the moment LOERN features OER agents and instructors, but we are planning to make the LOERN OER searchable by language as well.)

Thank you for supporting our center.

– The COERLL team
