7.1-Module Overview: Start Here!
You’ve worked very hard over the past four instructional weeks. Very hard. We hope that you have been challenged, that you have stretched, and you have expanded your Professional Learning Community through your interactions with your peers in the program, the Language Specialists, the Guest Instructors and your Lead Instructor. As we bring this experience to a close, Nicole will guide you in reflecting on your experience. You will then have the opportunity to craft your own, personalized growth plan. You will receive final feedback from the instructor and/or language specialist.
Module 7 Learning Targets
