In this course, students will explore issues, learn skills and reflect on attitudes and values in order to create a supportive learning environment for all students. Students will learn foundational concepts in TESOL (Teaching English as a Second or Other Language) and strategies to support the needs of multilingual learners. They will also apply these concepts and strategies in lesson and course planning for their specific learning and teaching contexts. The focus of this course is on the practical strategies and techniques for teaching multilingual learners in discipline specific content courses.
