*******************************************************************
Announcing the Seventh Summer Institute at the University of New
Brunswick / Fredericton / New Brunswick / Canada
*************************************************************
Creating Electronic Texts and Images -- a practical "hands-on"
exploration of the research, preservation and pedagogical uses of
electronic texts and images in the humanities.
DATES: August 24-29, 2003
INSTRUCTOR: David Seaman, Director, Digital Library Federation
(http://www.diglib.org/dlfhomepage.htm)
PLACE: University of New Brunswick, Fredericton, New Brunswick, Canada
Sponsored by the Electronic Text Centre at the University of New
Brunswick Libraries and the Department of Archives and Special
Collections
COURSE DESCRIPTION:
The course will centre around the creation of a set of electronic texts
and digital images. Topics to be covered include:
. XML tagging and conversion
. Using the Text Encoding Initiative Guidelines
. Ebooks
. The basics of archival imaging
. The form and implications of XML
. Publishing XML on the World Wide Web
. EAD - Encoded Archival Descriptions
The course is designed primarily for librarians and archivists who are
planning to develop electronic text and imaging projects, for scholars who
are creating electronic texts as part of their teaching and research, and
for publishers who are looking to move publications to the Web.
Course participants will learn how to create TEI encoded XML files from a
selection of manuscripts from UNB's Archives and Special Collections; and,
then, how to turn these XML files automatically into multiple formats,
including HTML, PDF, and EBook. Participants will also have the
opportunity to tag an EAD finding aid and explore issues in creating
digital images. The work of the class will be made available on the
Internet through the Electronic Text Centre at the University of New
Brunswick Libraries' Web Page.

Subject: ESS2003: Language and Speech Technology for Language Learning
FIRST ANNOUNCEMENT
and
CALL for PARTICIPATION
The 11th ELSNET Summer School on Language and Speech Communication
Topic: Language and Speech Technology in Language Learning
Lille (France), Monday July 7 - Friday July 18, 2003
Organized by the University of Lille 3
We are happy to announce that registration for the 11th ELSNET Summer
School is now open. For this school we have chosen a topic of great
relevance to researchers and developers in Europe and in other
multilingual environments: the use of language and speech technology
in language learning, both of spoken and of written language. The goal
of this workshop is to get young researchers on a track that will
eventually contribute to an important application area. The underlying
vision (or dream) is The automatic animated language tutor.
+ Audience and aims:
We see the school as mainly research and development oriented, and
hence the primary audience are researchers, developers and integrators
who will make our vision happen (rather than teachers who would use
it). Both technological and pedagogical aspects will be taken into
consideration
The aims are:
* to make the students familiar with the main principles and
problems of language learning/teaching
* to make them familiar with current best practice in computer
assisted language learning
* to make them familiar with the main challenges in computer
assisted language learning
Participants are expected to have a general computational background
and some familiarity with language or speech research and/or
processing. After completion of the summer school participants should
be able to function in teams aimed at designing or implementing tools,
environments or courses for Computer Assisted Language Learning
(abbreviated CALL).
+ Course programme:
The provisonal programme is available at
http://www.elsnet.org/ess2003/schedule.html
