2021 - 2022 Archives of the DL/I Webinar Series

The 2021 - 2022 Dual Language/Immersion (DL/I) Webinar Series was focused on sharing program and pedagogical best practices. Each 1.5-hour broadcast featured criteria from one of the domains of the Teacher Effectiveness for Language Learning (TELL) Framework. The discussion looked at how DL/I educators could use the TELL criteria and its sub-criteria to reflect on how effectively they are implementing their DL/I program(s) and the North Carolina Standard Course of Study. Guest speakers, recognized for their DL/I programs, shared how the TELL criteria characteristics were evident in their programs and in their classrooms with students, K-12, and a variety of resources were used for reflection.

Here are the archived materials from the 2021 - 2022 Dual Language/Immersion (DL/I) Webinar Series, including presentation slides, handouts, hyperlinks, and a recording of each broadcast. These materials can be used and/or adapted for local professional development.
