READ 548 - Case Studies in Dual Language Instruction: Theory and Practice(3 credits)
Population and demographic changes in the United States in recent decades have resulted in a dramatic increase in student populations whose learning needs would be best met in a multilingual learning environment. Classroom teachers in this course prepare for their role in meeting the needs of an increasing population of second and third language pupils in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. This course is designed to provide a direct, concrete, case-study learning experience in the lives of at least two families inhabiting such multilingual life worlds. This course is also designed to offer a comprehensive theoretical foundation in the history and conceptual frameworks related to second language instruction in the United States.
