Curriculum Workshop: PK-12 Teacher Partnership Institute
Course: Curriculum and Instruction (C I) 593A, section XA
The focus of this institute is on enhancing the skills of PK-12 foreign language teachers and the skills of teacher educators who work with pre-service and in-service teacher development. Topics include: designing and teaching curricula that are content-related, cognitively challenging, culturally rich, and which spiral and articulate across levels of instruction; effective classroom teaching strategies; development of literacy; standards in foreign language education; assessment strategies; and national trends. To facilitate understanding of similarities and differences between younger and older learners, participants will observe a daily 60-minute Japanese demonstration class for young children taught by Jessica Haxhi, Milken Award recipient. Following the class, participants will talk to the demonstration class teacher and institute leaders about observations.
