2003 NFLRC summer institute for professional development: Southeast Asian pedagogy workshops

Abstract

In Summer 2003, the UH NFLRC, in association with the UH Center for Southeast Asia Studies (CSEAS), a federally funded area studies National Resource Center, conducted a series of site visits and faculty development workshops at US-supported advanced study abroad programs in Southeast Asia. Workshops for advanced study abroad faculty were conducted at VASI (Vietnamese Advanced Summer Institute) located at the Hanoi University of Foreign Studies; COTIM (Consortium for the Teaching of Indonesian and Malay) located at Universitas Sam Ratulangi in Manado, Sulawesi, Indonesia; and ASK (Advanced Study of Khmer) located at Royal University of Phnom Penh (Cambodia). VASI and COTIM have enjoyed long support from the US Department of Education Fulbright Foreign Language and Area Studies (FLAS) Fellowship Program. ASK, a younger, smaller program, enjoys limited support from the UH Center for Southeast Asian Studies (CSEAS). This document reports on these activities.
