Working with Multilingual Students
Fall 2022
More Details
About 49% of MTSU students are multilingual. How do we facilitate this substantial number of multilingual students in the classroom to provide a learning experience that considers and accommodates the diversity of linguistic, cultural, and academic experiences of learners?
This workshop will help MTSU faculty members learn about this plurality of experiences, enable them to accommodate linguistic, cultural, academic, and demographic diversity, and equip them with cultural and pedagogical tools to help students navigate these challenges to make students’ academic experience enriching and equitable.

If you're looking for some just-in-time training or want to dig a little deeper into a specific topic of interest, MTSU subscribes to both Teaching Professor ("reflects the changing needs of today's college faculty and the students they teach") and Academic Leader ("reflects the evolving needs of academic deans, department chairs and heads, program directors, and others with leadership responsibilities") online publications. If attempting to access either publication off-campus, you'll be asked to enter your MTSU credentials.
If you have an idea for a potential future workshop, please feel free to send your suggestions to Dr. Lando Carter.
