Effective Practices for Languages Other Than English (LOTE) K-12<br />
What are the best, latest and most effective practices for instruction<br />
and assessment in World Language classes?<br />
K-12 LOTE teachers have challenges, concerns and questions that are unique to their particular<br />
instructional level. At the same time, it is important for them to know and understand the foreign language<br />
experiences that precede and follow their level. Participants will explore various age appropriate<br />
methods, materials, activities and assessments. The workshop will provide an opportunity to share<br />
experiences and learn about topics such as: Advanced Placement and Regents level curriculum and<br />
assessments, performance-based assessments, rubrics, technology, communicative approaches, inclusive<br />
strategies, materials and resources, culture, vertical articulation, integration and alignment with other<br />
disciplines and subjects, target language use, and aligning with the Common Core Learning Standards.<br />
