INTERNATIONALIZING
CURRICULUM AND INSTRUCTION
By Kathy Dawson
As educational institutions around the world seek
to internationalize and attract international students, educators are being
called to deliver content courses in English and to prepare learners to work in
multilingual, multicultural contexts. This presentation (see link below) from the 10th Latin
American Congress of Professional Development explores professional learning
needs of university professors, school teachers, and language instructors as
they face these challenges. Topics include using English for the specific purpose
of teaching, effective strategies for supporting language learners in content
classes, and frameworks for building intercultural communicative competence.
Attention will be given to Mount Royal University and the steps we are taking
to meet these challenges both locally and internationally.
