As an applied linguist, who is also a teacher educator, I often launch my courses with a wordbank cross-walk. Conceptual wordbanks are so helpful for adult learners both as a tool to prompt reflection on what you know, and as a way to inspire curiosity to learn more about a topic. Especially when things get super technical and nuanced.
Introducing The Language of Langauge Teaching! This 12 page packet is my essential wordbank, in it you will find my curated top-ten list of strategies and theoretical concepts related to language teaching. I have designed the packet for use with veteran and novice teachers and administrators in mind.
For each term, you will find:
a plain-language definition of the term
whether it's a concept or a strategy
descriptors of what the term looks like in the hands of a more proficient or novice language teacher
soundbites from actual teachers who've applied the terms with students
AI seems to be on everybodyās mind these days, and teachers are no exception. Except that when it comes to using AI for translating documents, there are some unforeseen costs (and outcomes) when it comes to supporting our MLLs.
Which is why I created this guide: āAI + Translation for MLLs: What Actually Worksā
This guide gives you:
āļø Doās + donāts for classroom translation tools
āļø How to use AI for support, not substitution
āļø Ways to keep multilingual pedagogy at the center
