I2I provides various professional development opportunities for
K-16 teachers nationwide, from lectures to inistitutes on the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign campus.
2009 International Summer Institute: Music in Many Languages with special guest Mary Goetze
Dates: June 14-19, 2009
The goal of the 2009 ISI is give teachers the confidence to use songs in a variety of less commonly taught languages in their classrooms. This intensive institute will address ways of incorporating less-commonly taught languages (languages other than Spanish, French and German) and cultures into the classroom, with special emphasis on the elementary general music classroom.
While all K-14 teachers are welcome, the curriculum materials are geared mainly towards elementary general music teachers. Social studies/social science teachers, particularly those teaching history, geography, sociology, and world cultures, may also find it useful.
