Abstract
Learning resources for endangered languages are rare, and good ones may remain relevant for a long time. They will however be much more attractive if they can be repackaged in a modern format. Here, we describe a case study where we used the open source LARA platform to transform a substantial course for the Australian Indigenous language Pitjantjatjara, developed in the 1960s, into a web-compatible multimodal format. The transformation process required about two person-months of effort and produced a resource, freely available on the web, containing about 4.7 hours of Pitjantjatjara audio. The methods are simple and general, and could easily be used to update other legacy resources of this nature. Online documentation is provided.
