What's this?

A little reflection daily about my language acquisition

601

And now for something bizarre.

At work, a group of us have been asked to complete a course  (the National Certificate in Adult Literacy and Numeracy). We are to do this whether or not we have already been trained. We are to embed literacy and numeracy, even if we actually teaching language and/or maths. It’s simply required.

The course is about to expire, so we’ve got to rush. We’ve been told to do the course backward. We are asked to submit the evidence that our administrators are confident that we are already doing! 

The course has a strong Aotearoa/Maori perspective. Interestingly, in the English Language Centre we have never had a single Maori student enroll.
