- integrating grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation, culture, language awareness, learning strategies, media, technology, literature, and a variety of assessment strategies into lesson plans and long-term teaching units which reflect current Ministry of Education guidelines;
- electronic conferencing to support a collegial learning environment;
- the creation of a professional electronic portfolio.
Candidates will be involved in reflective and active learning. This course is offered in French.
