<font><font face="georgia,serif">Native Languages Go International<br><br>By Carol Berry April 17, 2012   <br>USA<br>   <br>With one stroke of an official pen, Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper signed a bill giving life to teaching Native American languages that now, as world languages, can count for high school credit.<br>
<br>People fluent in the languages of federally recognized tribes can teach those languages without full-fledged credentialing under the bills’ provisions. Currently credentialed teachers of Native languages would continue to be adjunct instructors, as at present.<br>
<br>After a months-long drafting and legislative approval process, sponsors applauded signing of the act that provides for Native language instructors to work in partnership with licensed teachers who currently teach world languages for their employing school districts<br>
