The eWorkshops are innovative online multi-media resources available to educators who wish to collaboratively inquire into and improve their practice with multilingual learners. The eWorkshops are inquiry oriented and are guided by an  essential question and a guiding question for each of the six modules in the eWorkshop.

This eWorkshop is 15 weeks long and covers 6 modules. Each module takes between 2 to 4 hours. At the end of the training, there is an online meeting scheduled on 1/6/21 from 3:00 PM-4:00 PM MST.
