Teachers of English Language Learners (ELs) no longer solely applies to educators who are certified in ESOL. Explore the guiding principles of English language instruction. Examine how culturally responsive teaching and critical pedagogy build the foundation for meaningful relationships. Learn how to scaffold instruction, design formative assessments that build on background knowledge and promote proficiency in listening, speaking, reading, and writing in all content areas. Experience seven modules that lay a novice-level foundation in Spanish in order to be able to communicate with many ELs at the beginning of their language journeys.

The Mindful Classroom
This course introduces educators to mindfulness as a lifestyle and more importantly, as an instructional style rather than an isolated period of instructional time. Establishing best practices in mindfulness instruction is a key component of this course. Developing personal practice and how mindfulness affects the brain coincide to define the role of the mindful teacher. How to introduce mindfulness to our communities is addressed, as well as Cognitive Load Theory.

I liked the assignments as they catered to both the teacher (me) and my students. I learned a lot of new strategies and ways to get to know my students better and thus help them succeed.
I liked the way the topics were organized and felt that the assignments were very manageable. I also like having the options of how to present the information, like creating a PowerPoint or submitting a video. The instructor's feedback was always very positive!
This course was wonderful in creating learning opportunities for me that I can carry over into my classroom. I think this course is beneficial to all teachers in creating a positive learning environment.
The course created a positive environment and was the most collaborative online course I have taken. The instructor utilized breakout rooms and active participation on part of the students effectively. The course objectives were clear and addressed. I learned a number of strategies to deal with disruptive students.
The professor is extremely knowledgeable. There are a lot of applications that could be used in the classroom. I have found a lot of strategies that I will be trying to implement in my classroom.
Upon completion of this course, I walked away with a huge resource of activities that I can implement in my classroom right away. This was by far the best graduate course I have taken. I have been able to take so much of what I've learned and pass the information and, most importantly, activities to other educators that are more than thankful.
