Founded in 1994, the Berkeley Language Center is a department
in the Division of the Arts and Humanities of the College
of Letters and Sciences. The BLC's mission is to support the learning
and teaching of heritage and foreign languages on the Berkeley campus
and, where appropriate, in the University of California system. To
meet this overarching goal, the BLC employs numerous strategies to
improve teaching effectiveness and enhance the learning environment:
Provide language instructors with opportunities to learn of new
developments in the fields of sociolinguistics, language pedagogy,
and second language acquisition theory;
Support research by language instructors and its dissemination
at professional meetings and in professional journals;
Support faculty production of new language learning materials;
Provide faculty and students with state-of-the-art learning facilities
and equipment;
Provide faculty and students with access to language learning materials;
Maintain a library and media archive of materials for language
teaching and research.
