Transforming Science Learning: Part 1: Multilingual Learners in Science Classrooms: Theory and Policy Foundations, January 26, 2022

Join us on Wednesday, January 26, 2022, from 7:00 PM to 8:30 PM ET for part 1 (of two) of this Transforming Science Learning seminar series.

Science instruction with multilingual learners has traditionally emphasized what these students “lack” (deficit thinking) but current research indicates that teachers should focus instead on the assets that multilingual learners bring to science learning. This shift calls for key changes to instruction and assessment practices in linguistically diverse science classrooms.
