Title | Professional Development Videos: Teaching Foreign Languages K12 |
Body | From: http://www.learner.org/resources/series185.html Teaching Foreign Languages K12 is a video library illustrating effective instruction and assessment strategies for teaching foreign languages. The language classrooms shown in this library include Spanish, French, German, Japanese, Italian, Latin, Russian, and Chinese. All classroom videos are subtitled in English and are appropriate for K12 teachers of any foreign language. Created in conjunction with the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages (ACTFL), the library includes a 30-minute introduction and 60- minute overviews of ACTFLs Standards for Foreign Language Learning and new assessment practices, as well as 27 classroom programs. In the half hour classroom programs, teachers from schools across the country model interpersonal, interpretive, and presentational modes of communication throughout a range of grade and competency levels. Concepts of culture, comparisons, connections to students lives, and the importance of community are also integrated into the lessons. A Web site and print guide accompany the video programs, providing a complete professional development experience. Produced by WGBH Educational Foundation with the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages. 2003. ISBN: 1-57680-731-2 |
