Sorry I have not been updating my blog that often. I will be better about it in the upcoming months/years.
UPDATE:
I got into Graduate School! Yay!
I was accepted into the Masters of TESOL at Ohio Dominican University.I will be keeping a record of the courses I am taking and with what professor and what was going on in the classes. This should serve as a good reference for people looking at going to Ohio Dominican and looking at the MA TESOL program.
As of 5/14/2013 I am currently enrolled in two classes. TSL 540 and TSL 570.
TSL 540 is titled Cultural Diversity and Education.
Since it is a summer semester, this class is being held online. This class also serves as a median for all the people that are going to Costa Rica instead of staying in Columbus for this class.
About this class: A study of the nature, role and content of culture, especially in relation to education. Topics include major cultural concepts, inter- action between language and culture, and multi- cultural education. Conisderation of ESOL students' cultural identities, language and literacy development, and acdemic achievement.
You will also be responsible for obtaining 20 outside service-learning hours which pertain to teaching and interacting with people from vastly different cultures and learning backgrounds.
Professor: Dr. Michele Regalla
Book Needed: Spradlin, L. (2012). Diversity matters: Understanding diversity in schools. Belmont, CA: Cengage. ISBN 1-111-34167-2
I will be taking TSL 570 as well this summer but it doesn't start for another 2 weeks. So I'll see you then!
