P-Teach: Language, Identity & Power
Want to learn how to become one of those teachers who creates a strong sense of belonging in their classroom?
This course explores the relationship between language, identity, and power in various international contexts. The course considers how legacies of inequality for particular communities are reflected in societal attitudes about languages and language users and subsequent language planning.
This is a required class for all CU Denver education degrees and will likely transfer as an elective elsewhere.
This course is concurrent enrollment with CU-Denver. Students earn 3 college credits upon successful completion of this course.
Schedule: This course is offered every other year.
