On-Campus Program
Linguistically Diverse Education
The University of Northern Colorado is pleased to announce the:
Endorsement in Linguistically Diverse Education, with a continuation option in Master of Arts in Teaching: Linguistically Diverse Emphasis
This program is designed to meet the needs of Limited English Proficient students throughout northern Colorado. Many second language learners are falling below their native English-speaking peers in all subjects, as cited by the CSAP results from 2004-2005. Only twenty seven percent of Hispanic students scored proficient of above on the reading assessment for grades 4-10. Therefore, 73% failed the reading assessment. Additionally, 54% of students in grades K-3 are Limited English Proficient Students.
We are offering the LDE Endorsement and Master’s of Arts in Teaching Degree at our Loveland campus beginning in Fall 2011. We welcome you to join us.
Regarding the ONLINE program:
This program is offered through the UNC Office of Extended Studies, which means a flat per-credit tuition rate for all students in the program. There are no student fees. Certain courses may carry specific course fees for additional services and materials.
