DL Essentials ONLINE, SELF PACED, 2 SDW CREDITS

Welcome to the Dual Language Essentials Course. 

As you know, the School District of Waukesha is a regional leader in quality, research based bilingual education 4K-10th grade.

This course is intended to guide you through the essential preparation for leading and teaching in a Dual Language Program and will be available from today through December 23.   

Comprised of 11 sessions, each session will provide a reading resource and essential questions to guide your thinking and learning. Your opportunity will be to use the reading to prepare a discussion post to share and collaborate with other colleague in the course. A rubric to support the quality of your responses is below. 

Since each participant enters the course with diverse background knowledge, this course has become a vibrant opportunity to grow as learners, leaders and advocates for the Dual Language Program-a program whose goal is to eliminate the achievement gap by providing students with a Bilingual and Biliterate Education in Spanish and English so that they are competent linguistically, academically, culturally and globally.

To enter the course you will need to log into google classrooms, and use this course key to get in (lt7qcnz).  The required readings in the course are uploaded to the course with the exception of the text Dual Language A-Z, which you will need to purchase and get reimbursed for at the completion of your work.  Pending a grant, a small stipend may be available to support your learning.
