  The Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs (ECA) of the U.S. Department of State is pleased to announce support for follow-on projects to assist Teachers of Critical Languages Program (TCLP) alumni and institutions to support mutual understanding by helping to increase the number of Americans teaching and learning critical need languages. Funding is available for the following types of projects: school partnerships and joint-classroom projects; sharing of innovative teaching methods, best practices and/or comparative methodologies; developing curricula and supporting the exchange of authentic materials for communicative needs; and strengthening respect and appreciation for educators.
  
  TCLP Follow-on Projects may be proposed by exchange teachers, alumni, U.S. mentor teachers, or U.S. host schools and districts. Projects should:
  
  1) Maintain contact or expand the relationship between TCLP alumni and the schools at which they have taught as a teacher of critical need languages; and
  2) Contribute to the development of critical need language programs in U.S. schools in support of the goal of increasing the number of Americans learning and teaching critical need foreign languages.
