BodyNational Directory of Teacher Preparation Programs (Preservice and
Inservice) for Linguistically and Culturally Diverse Students

The purpose of The National Directory of Teacher Preparation Programs
(Preservice and Inservice) for Linguistically and Culturally Diverse
Students is to begin to identify nationally recognized programs of
professional teacher preparation (preservice and inservice) that are
addressing, promoting and implementing effective professional preparation for teachers who will teach in linguistically and culturally diverse classrooms. The Directory focuses on programs that emphasize multiculturalism, second language learning (ESL and bilingual education)and special education. The directory does not include teacher preparation programs that emphasize a traditional teacher preparation base and do not consider preparation for cultural and linguistic diversity in their programs. The programs identified in the Directory implement a body of special knowledge, skills and processes and experiences that are different from traditional teacher preparation programs. The distinguishing feature of these programs are that they in some way prepare teachers by providing
them with an essential knowledge base in preparation for teaching in
culturally and linguistically diverse classrooms. View the Directory at
