Catalog

Consent of instructor required. As the final course of the TENL program, the Practicum builds on participants’ knowledge and skills of teaching multilingual learners by revisiting previous learning in the TENL program. This course requires participants to demonstrate mastery and application of concepts covered in previous courses (e.g., oral language progression, literacy development, test construction, domains/subsystems of language, language teaching methodologies, etc.) and assesses what participants currently know and believe about English language instruction, literacy acquisition, and approaches to professional development. Experiential learning or fieldwork in a classroom setting is required. In order to qualify for TENL certification, students must obtain a grade of C or higher in all TENL courses.
