Professor from the University of Minnesota to deliver lecture at Sabhal Mòr Ostaig.



Professor Diane J. Tedick from the University of Minnesota will deliver a lecture this month at Sabhal Mòr Ostaig entitled Reflections on Immersion Teacher Preparation and Professional Development.

It will offer reflections on the hybrid (face to face and online) nature of the programs particularly from a pedagogical perspective. Specifically it will point to the benefits that can be observed in online/hybrid teacher education as well as the challenges that exist and how some of those challenges have been addressed. The presentation will also include a brief description of findings from a study on in-service immersion teacher perspectives of online learning.

The lecture will be given on Thursday 21st June in Seòmar Shomhaire, Ionad Iain Nobail at 3.30pm and is open to the public.
