Responding to Language Challenges in the Classroom: Faculty Practices Across Disciplines

20 November @ 1:00 am - 2:00 pm

Many students in English-medium courses understand their subject matter well but struggle with the language demands of the classroom, such as interpreting assessment instructions, expressing their ideas clearly in English, or understanding disciplinary terms that we as instructors may take for granted.

In this Join-the-Conversation session, three speakers from different faculties and the CiC team will engage in a practical dialogue on what language accommodation can look like in the classroom. In this session, you will gain:

  • a clearer understanding of how language challenges manifest differently across disciplines
  • practical, classroom-tested strategies that can be adapted for your own teaching, including resources and AI-supported examples
  • a better sense of how the CiC team can support your course

We warmly invite you to join us. Event details are below:
