EDL 516 - Methods and Teaching Content Areas in a Bilingual Setting

(3 credits)
Prerequisite(s): EDL 506 . Explores the current legal, socio-cultural and educational context for teaching English Language Learners (ELL) in K-12 schools. Examines the psycholinguistic and sociolinguistic principles upon which modern methods of second language (L2) teaching are based. Students examine, analyze, practice and apply multiple strategies for teaching subject matter content and addressing content standards within a framework for determining the effectiveness and appropriate uses for strategies. The course content is learned through the kinds of experiential, participatory and process-oriented strategies that are used in successful bilingual/English language development classrooms and that build reflective practices and shared decision-making in programs designed for ELL. The course is taught in Spanish; writing assignments are to be submitted in Spanish.
