How to Teach a Class (Amy)

Hello! Are you a student who wants to lead a class? If so, prior to being able to teach, you need to complete this almost 100% asynchronous class delivered in ten modules that you can go through at your own pace. To help, a pacing guide and weekly email reminders are sent to keep you on track. Here is what the class covers:

Part One  – Exploration of Good Teaching and Learning About Yourself as a Teacher.

Part Two – Planning Your Class

Part Three – Pitching Your Class

  • All work done asynchronously at your own pace - pacing chart provided

Duolingo World Language Class (Amy)

Do you need a World Language class? Are you motivated to work asynchronously approximately 20 minutes a day during the week? Do you want to choose what language you learn? Then this is the class to take. Students can either select to use the program Duolingo or provide their own program (must be approved) to study a language over the course of ten weeks. Students are expected to work at least 20 minutes a day five days a week to earn credit for this course.

  • Most of your work time will be "in class" during the allotted class time, however, should you need or want more time to complete your work you will be expected to use some "outside of class" time.
