Our Senior Editor of Digital Learning and EL/ML, Kristen Chapron, and our Educator Network member, Veronica Schmidt-Gomez, will present at La Cosecha.
Session description:
¿Por qué civismo? Civic education prepares students to be informed and engaged community members. It opens doors by expanding students’ minds and gives them the ability to talk with others who have different viewpoints. Games (like those offered on iCivics) and other technological resources are an exciting way to provide equitable and critical-thinking opportunities about our government for all students, including Spanish-speaking and multilingual learners. Let’s explore how to integrate the building of language and content knowledge and create civic connections!
