SUMMARY:CALeidoscope Series: How do Multiliteracies Enrich Student Voice and Identity?
DESCRIPTION:A single turn of the kaleidoscope. A fuller picture over time.   \nCALeidoscope is a professional learning series for bilingual and dual language educators who believe the best thinking happens in community. Each session pairs conceptual grounding with community dialogue to examine the questions that our field keeps circling back to – not to find easy answers\, but to see our work more fully\, together. Each session holds its own thought. Together\, they form an ongoing conversation.   \nEach 90-minute session will include conceptual grounding\, individual reflection\, and structured dialogue\, closing with a collective synthesis and at least one practical takeaway to take back to the classroom.   \nInstitute Details: \nLiteracy has never been only about text. When we expand our definition of what counts as meaning-making and embrace digital\, visual\, oral\, and other multimodal and cultural forms of expression\, we hold space for our multilingual learners to show up fully in our classrooms. This session explores how a multiliteracies framework enriches not just students’ strengths and assets\, but who they get to be – amplifying voice\, honoring identity\, and redefining what it means to be literate in today’s multilingual world.   \nCost\n\nEarly bird pricing (individual): $60 per person if registered by November 11\, 2026\nStandard individual rate: $80 per person for registrations after November 11\, 2026\nGroups of 2 or more qualify for the early bird rate of $60 per person\nCost includes all digital training materials and one-year access to course content\nRegister early—space is limited\nRegistration closes on November 27\, 2026\n\nVenue\nThis Institute will be held online. \nCertificate of Completion\nParticipants will earn a CAL Credly Digital badge and certificate for 1.5 hours of participation issued through the Credly platform\, recognizing full participation and engagement in the institute.
