Language Learning Center

Faculty Services

Loyola's Language Learning Center helps instructors bring technology into the classroom and also offers the option of holding class sessions in our collaboration lab or two video viewing rooms. The LLC can be used for everything from showing students a feature film, to leading a technology-driven class session, to having students create, film, and edit their own short movies in our video editing room. All of the equipment necessary for these activities and a significant foreign language film collection is available at the LLC, as is technical assistance for both instructors and students.
