What 3 Improvements should we make in this area?
- Computer labs equipped with foreign language programs
- Tutors/Study Groups
- Tools
How could we accomplish this task?
- Computer Lab: start here and we need to figure out what software we need
and
the cost
- We need to talk to Sherri and the program coordinators at each site. (Ginger
and Cathy)
- The coordinators could promote what's there.
- ESs will gather ideas for materials and email them to Secretary, James
Tinley.
- Lets put in a timeline. We could plan to start it by next fall and get
orders in by say March.
- Various curriculum in the lab for use and to checkout. Have it ordered.
Study Group/Tutoring
- Create a time line for approval
- Set up a class. We have an instructor.
- We could have a link on the CW site for bilingual learning
- Find bilingual instructors.
- We could get an older student who is good in the foreign language and let
them get credit for working with the instructor.
Tools:
- Create a list that can go on the web page to help students as they study
a
foreign language.
- Have tutors on this list and instructors in the area they are learning
- Curriculum should be listed
How can we accomplish this task:
- We can email among the group 3 and add to these ideas on who, how, and
when.
Let's plan on getting this list of tools for the website done by Nov 1.
