Planning with purpose leads to effective instruction. This course takes learners through a variety of planning processes that align closely to pre-established learning goals, objectives, state and national standards. In addition, working knowledge of current and best instructional planning design specific to ELLs, alongĀ  with the preparation that goes behind it, will highlight reflection and development.
