In this 10-day summer institute, K-12 Chinese teachers will explore key concepts and principles related to mentoring, leadership, and change. They will collaboratively develop standards-based, thematically focused, and culturally rich Chinese teaching materials and experiment with compelling classroom applications of emerging technologies such as blogs, podcasts, digital storytelling, and wikis. They will learn to use these technologies to disseminate materials and expand their mentoring and leadership to the profession at district and state levels.
