Podcasts
Start by listening to two Future Tense podcasts about new language learning technologies: Mango and podcasts. Go to http://americanpublicmedia.publicradio.org/podcasts/ and scroll down to Future Tense. The two podcasts on language learning I heard were broadcast on November 8 (Mango) and November 9, 2007 (Chinese learning via podcasts). You can subscribe to Future Tense via iTunes to get each new episode. I'll be adding direct links to these featured techologies soon (Ruth Ann).

Directories
http://www.cal.org/projects/fldirectory.html
This is CAL's online directory to foreign language assessment tools.

"The FLAD is a free, searchable directory of information on nearly 200 tests in over 90 languages. Two of CAL’s existing test directories have been combined and updated into one comprehensive, easily accessible resource. See the spotlight for more information. The FLAD serves as a starting point for teachers and educators to search for foreign language assessments. Available information about assessments includes grade and proficiency levels, languages for which each test is available, skills targeted by a test, information about the test’s development and the publisher’s or developer’s contact information for further inquiries."
