    The Ohio State University Department of East Asian Languages and Literatures, in conjunction with the OSU National Foreign Language Resource Center, is offering intensive summer programs for teachers of Japanese and Chinese and learners of Chinese and Japanese during the summer of 1999. The Training Program for Teachers of Japanese is an intensive seven-week (June 21 - August 6) training program which develops participants' Japanese teaching skills through lectures, master classes, workshops, and hands-on teaching. Professor Mari Noda of The Ohio State University, co-author of Japanese: The Spoken Language, is director of the Training Program for Teachers of Japanese. The Training Program for Teachers of Chinese is an intensive three-week (June 21 - July 9) training program which develops participants' Chinese teaching skills through lectures and master classes. The ten-week (June 21 - August 27) intensive Chinese (Levels I and IV) and Japanese (Levels I, II, and IV) language programs allow learners of Chinese and Japanese to complete one level of language study during the summer quarter.
