    Description

    Designed for in-service teachers of world languages in online environments, this course, offered in Fall 2015, focuses on the various kinds of interaction that take place in online language courses. It is a part of the NFLRC Online Language Pedagogy (OLP) series. While interaction is important in any online course, it deserves special attention in language courses, since communicative interaction is key to developing proficiency in a language. Successful completion of this course earns a badge conferred by the National Foreign Language Resource Center (University of Hawai‘i). Badge earners from North Carolina Virtual Public School are eligible to earn a Continuing Education Unit (CEU) towards maintaining their professional qualifications.
