Hi Seann<div><br><div>I just got an invite to this upcoming NMC Google+ panel. &nbsp; One of my first thoughts was that you and your students - or perhaps even your Brazilian collaborators - &nbsp;might find it worth either attending live or having a later look by registering and getting the post-event link. &nbsp;As you know, I&#39;m very interested in discovering new directions for&nbsp;language learning&nbsp;applications related to this topic...</div>

<div><br></div><div>Hope all is going very well for you and your family! &nbsp;We&#39;re suffering through some late February cabin fever up here in Wisconsin. &nbsp;My niece from BH is living with us and going to high school in Milwaukee this semester. &nbsp;We&#39;re all planning a spring break road trip to visit my son out in DC. &nbsp;Too bad that won&#39;t happen until mid-April during the week before Easter -- we could sorely use some warmer climes by March!</div>

<div><br></div><div>Best<br><div>
