TitleSummer STARTALK Program for Early Language Learning
Body
This summer, the Delaware Department of Education will be collaborating with the Cape Henlopen School District and the University of Delaware to bring a three-week learning opportunity for Chinese teachers of early language learners, July 12-30, 2010. The three weeks will be divided into two parts: a one-week intensive methods course designed to teach Chinese to early language learners and a two-week practicum experience working with elementary students during a STARTALK language camp. Dr. Helena Curtain will be leading the methods course and Dr. Renee Dong from the University of Delaware will facilitate the practicum experience. Participating teachers will receive free-of-charge 20 nights of lodging, breakfast and lunch daily (excluding weekends), textbooks and all classroom materials. Participants will receive continuing professional development hours or may register to receive graduate school credit from the University of Delaware. There is no fee to receive professional development hours, but participants will be responsible for all fees related to receiving credit from the University of Delaware. Additional information about the program can be found in the links below. Application deadline is Tuesday, June 1, 2010.
