Second Language Education Centre

International Visitors to the Centre - Fall, 1997

In October of 1997, a colleague in second language education from Norway, Liv Jorunn-Bakkejord, spent two weeks at SLEC. Ms. Bakkejord is a professor in the Department of Linguistics, Norwegian as a Second Language and Training of Interpreters section at the University of Oslo.

During her two weeks at UNB, she visited university classes and public schools as well as gathering materials and reviewing literature in the area of SL learning and teaching in the North American context. This opportunity allowed the faculty of the Centre insight into SL education in the Norwegian setting as well as providing an opportunity for a SL educator from abroad to explore our experiences in this field.

If you are interested in contacting Liv about second language education in Norway, her address is:
