Building block 4:
How can modules in teacher education programmes be designed to prepare teachers for language-sensitive education?
This Building block offers guidelines for teacher educators who are developing and adapting teacher education modules to include language-sensitive aspects. Both curriculum planners and teacher educators may be involved in ensuring that language-sensitive elements are covered in teacher education modules, in order to foster students’ awareness of language sensitivity during their studies and to promote students’ critical understanding of the role of language and language sensitivity in different subject areas.
