LARC
The Language Acquisition Resource Center’s mission is:
- to increase the numbers of highly competent speakers with knowledge of languages, cultures, and world regions, beginning with youth and focusing particularly on languages critical to international and domestic security and conflict resolution,
- to provide multiple pathways to language study for professional purposes, credentialing and certifying teachers, particularly in less commonly taught languages,
- to enhance our ability to assess, diagnose, and predict oral language competency and performance through innovative, low-cost testing solutions, and
- to conduct research and create technology-enabled, interdisciplinary, system-wide approaches for language teaching and learning.
