AE Live 4.3: Implementing Content based Instruction in Your Classroom

This webinar is part of the American English LIVE online professional development series. For more resources to teach and learn English, visit americanenglish.state.gov.
This session will focus on the needs of teachers who are currently using or interested in content-based language instruction (CBI) in the classroom. Participants will learn basic CBI concepts and examine methods to connect and integrate content learning and language instruction. We will look at sample materials and tasks for the classroom and consider how best to structure lessons. We will discuss methods for simplifying content to make difficult ideas easier to understand. We will also focus on the need for attention to subject-specific academic vocabulary. Finally, we will look briefly at different models for assessing student work in these contexts.
