Training materials for language educators
A set of modules for language educators who are interested in learning about using and creating Open Educational Resources (OER).
These modules are an ongoing TeCHS project aiming to provide relevant information and resources to promote, expand and celebrate heritage Spanish teaching and learning. Each self-paced module includes two to four lessons, presenting video clips from the workshops, reading assignments, activities, and resources, as well as self-graded quizzes.
The purpose of these materials is to help future public school teachers of Spanish in their assessment of learners’ levels of proficiency. These materials not only present videos of learners interacting with an interlocutor, but also direct the viewer to notice features about the learners’ language and proficiency levels. The website also presents information on proficiency levels to help the viewer develop a greater awareness of differences in learner language.
