Aloha and Happy New Year!

The National Foreign Language Resource Center (NFLRC) at the University of Hawai‘i at Manoa is pleased to announce its 2016 Fundamentals of Project-Based Language Learning (PBLL) Online Institute (http://nflrc.hawaii.edu/events/view/83/). It serves as an enriching and convenient professional development opportunity for foreign language teachers with a total of 5 modules (3 lessons per module).

Project-Based Learning has a rich and productive history extending for over 100 years. Embark on a journey of discovery to better understand project-based language learning (PBLL) and explore its connections with 21st Century Skills, content-based instruction, performance assessment, and your own instructional context. This year’s Online Institute will feature a special focus on interculturality, the ability to inhabit and interpret different cultures and to reflect upon one’s own culture through the lens of another culture’s values. Experts in the field will guide you through the creation of a project blueprint. Connect with colleagues who have a common interest in quality PBLL implementation.

Complete Option 1 as part of a facilitated cohort or Option 2 via self-paced study. Successfully complete all assigned tasks and earn an NFLRC digital badge, which qualifies you to apply for the NFLRC PBLL Intensive Summer Institute offered each year in Honolulu. Registration for this online institute is $25. Space is limited, so sign up today.
