TESOL Pop’s Post

Hi everyone. Check out my new podcast experiment, The Deep Dive. This latest episode is taken from a blog post titled "The Ebb and Flow of Language Policy in K-12 Education,". It examines the historical evolution of bilingual education in the United States, showcasing how language policies have shifted back and forth between restriction and inclusion, mirroring broader societal trends and values. The episode argues that understanding this history is crucial for educators today as they navigate the challenges and opportunities presented by bilingualism in K-12 education. The hosts conclude that embracing bilingualism and cultural diversity in schools is not just an educational imperative but a moral one, as it fosters a sense of belonging, supports academic achievement, and prepares students for a globalized world. https://lnkd.in/gaebaaj5 Or on Spotify... https://lnkd.in/gpvYgbF7

💡New Leason Idea💡 AML is pleased to share our Media Literacy part 1 AQ grad Leanne Gabriele’s podcasting lesson. She designed it for her grade 8 FSL students but this experiential learning opportunity is scalable from K-12 and could be adapted to any subject. Gabriele’s lesson allows students to practice multiple literacies – #MediaLiteracy, #DigitalLiteracy, #InformationLiteracy, and #CriticalLiteracy alongside speaking, listening and writing skills. Students will gain proficiency in conducting mock interviews through Audacity for podcasting, fostering critical thinking for idea generation, information gathering, and content organization. The emphasis is on clear communication, audience consideration, and proper language usage. As well, they will reflect on disparities between written and oral interviews, deepening their grasp of the medium while acquiring practical skills in interview composition and podcast production. This approach enhances critical thinking, communication, and reflective abilities.
