Linguistic and Professional Identities of Bi/plurilingual Teachers of French EDUC 410 (4)

Student-teachers will be invited to reflect upon their identity as speakers of French as an additional language and how this identity might intersect with the construction of their professional identity as teachers of French. The ways student-teachers perceive themselves as professionals impact their development as well as their interactions with their colleagues, their pedagogical choices and their classroom practices. Understanding the complexities of their identity will give them access to a sense of ownership of language. Corequisite: EDUC 400.
