Description
This course is designed to introduce educators to the unique learning needs and challenges of today’s Multilingual learners (MLs). More than 55% of teachers in the United States have at least one ML in the classroom, making it critical for all educators to become familiar with the important roles that parent and community involvement, legal protections and policies, advocacy, and community organizing play in supporting these students in learning core academic content.
Objectives
In this course, you will:
- Demonstrate awareness of the school and classroom climate necessary to support and teach multilingual learners (MLs).
- Understand the socio-cultural considerations for creating an equitable educational environment for MLs.
- Identify the relevant state and federal laws and regulations that pertain to MLs and their education, including identification of the support systems.
- Describe ML cultural considerations and culturally and linguistically responsive teaching.
- Demonstrate an understanding of the uniqueness of different ML populations and the considerations for their teaching and learning.

This course was a great reminder of the best practices that I should already be implementing in my classroom. It was also helpful to hear from other teachers about their experiences in the classroom with MLs and their families. As our classrooms become more diverse, it is important to take deliberate actions to ensure that we are teaching all students and that we are reaching all families.
