Professional Development for Instructors of Arabic

The Penn State STARTALK Arabic Academy for Teachers is a federally funded
professional development program open to teachers of Arabic in middle
school, high school, and college and university environments.

This blended learning program consists of an online preparation component
(starting May 21), a seven-day, on-site component at Penn State University
Park (June 21-27), and an online follow-up component (ending July 21).

The program provides information about, and practice in, innovative
teaching methodologies for Modern Standard Arabic, with a focus on helping
instructors remain in the target language and use little or no English in
your Arabic classroom.

Participants who complete the program successfully will earn Penn State
academic credit. Tuition and fees will be paid by the academy. The academy
will also provide room and partial board during the on-site workshop
component of the program at no cost to participants.

Interested instructors are encouraged to submit their application promptly
or let us know of their intent to apply.
