SUMMARY:Leading Dual Language Programs for Student Success
DESCRIPTION:Learn how to enhance or develop your dual language program based on the seven research-based strands of effective dual language education in the CAL publication Guiding Principles for Dual Language Education (Howard et al.\, 2018). Sign on with your leadership team and work collaboratively to make your dual language program the best it can be! \nThis 15-hour\, synchronous online institute\, guided by CAL’s decades of experience in connecting research to practice\, provides information and tools to help school leaders gain a solid understanding of the benefits of dual language education\, explore how they can develop a program that promotes student success in two languages\, and increase their impact as leaders. \nThis session is intended for district and school leaders—including principals\, assistant principals\, and teacher leaders—seeking to deepen their practical understanding of the “nuts and bolts” of effective dual language programming. Special emphasis is placed on strategies for ensuring language and cultural equity to create an environment where bilingualism\, biliteracy\, high academic achievement\, and sociocultural competence thrive. \nThe institute will provide a venue for knowledge-building\, planning\, and networking with peers. In collaboration with colleagues\, participants will be invited to actively reflect on their current policies and practices to determine the next steps for enhancing or building their programs. \nQuestions? Email solutions@cal.org with any questions you may have about the institute. \nRemote Institute Design \nRemote\, synchronous sessions take place over three days. The institute includes time for reflection and planning. \nYou will have the opportunity to plan with your team (if you come with a team) and interact with educators in other schools and districts. \nYou will be able to apply what you learned to your evolving program. \nCurriculum Overview \nThis institute is designed to help educators develop or strengthen their dual language programs.
