Content and Language Sensitive Approach to Multilingualism in School

Overview

Project Overview

"Content-and-language sensitive Approach to Multilingualism in School" aims to strengthen multilingual education in mathematics teaching over three years.

The initiative develops professional development programs for math teachers, creating synchronous and asynchronous CaLSAM modules to enable teachers (current and prospective) to incorporate and make productive use of their students' linguistic resources in mathematics learning.
