This course introduces language-teaching methods as applied to students in bilingual programs, including principles of first and second language learning. Teacher candidates examine and evaluate their own beliefs and practices as bilingual educators in light of current research on bilingual education methodologies. Candidates become familiar with appropriate teaching and learning strategies and learn to identify, assess, and modify instructional materials for the bilingual classroom. Issues affecting the development and implementation of a successful bilingual program are explored in the context of U.S. minority cultures and their relationship to the bilingual classroom. Teacher candidates are required to observe in bilingual P-8 classroom settings to extend their understanding of effective bilingual teaching methods.
