The Foreign Language Teaching Methods online professional development resource was developed by the Center for Open Educational Resources and Language Learning (COERLL), formerly the Texas Language Technology Center, at the University of Texas at Austin. COERLL seeks to improve foreign language instruction by exploring the potential of emerging technologies and developing high-quality open educational resources.
The project was funded by a Professional Development Modules grant from the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board. The grant provides funding to eligible higher education institutions to create online professional development about the most effective strategies or "best practices" for improving both teaching and learning.
