| Body | From http://nclrc.org/profdev/nclrc_inst_pres/startalk2011.html The National Capital Language Resource Center STARTALK 2011 teacher training workshop Language for Language Teachers: Raising Awareness and Refreshing Knowledge June 27 – July 1, 2011 The George Washington University, Washington, D.C. The purpose of this one-week, 40-hour, intensive summer institute is to raise the awareness of K-16 teachers of Arabic as a foreign/second language about the challenges of using the target language in the classroom and refreshing their own knowledge of structural/grammatical rules of Arabic language. Participants will have the opportunity to reflect on their own language knowledge and the delivery styles they apply in classroom instruction. They will examine the degree of suitability to the levels they teach and raise their own awareness of adjusting the target language use to meet the strategies of making their input comprehensible. By the end of the institute, teachers will have a refreshed, explicit understanding of the intricacies of the simple, yet most important, linguistic features of Arabic. They will gain an understanding of how to contextualize structure in standards-based, communication-oriented classroom instruction.
