ESL 543 Culturally Responsive and Equitable Practices for ELL Teachers

This course provides teacher candidates an opportunity to develop and enhance teaching practices to support, encourage, and engage linguistically diverse students. Candidates will explore ways students’ in-school and out-of-school experiences should be valued and connected to new learning through an asset-based approach to planning and instruction. The course will also help candidates critically consider the ways our current assessment system could be more culturally responsive for our ELL students and their families.
