EDCI 519 Teaching Learners of English as a New Language (ENGL 519) Sem. 1 and 2. SS. Class 3, cr. 3.
This course focuses on current issues and techniques in ESL instruction and assessment for students at the beginning or intermediate stages of English language acquisition Pre-K-12. Emphasis is on the design of materials and instruction that foster English language development in the content areas of the curriculum (i.e., Specially Designed Academic Instruction in English or SDAIE). Some familiarity with elementary and/or secondary teaching methods is assumed. Professor Britsch.

Life Sciences:

VPB 612 Advanced Morphologic Techniques Sem. 2. Class 1.5, lab. .5, cr. 2. Prerequisite: a course in basic biology or immunology or consent of instructor. Students should have a basic understanding of these disciplines prior to taking this course.
Provides advanced study of specialized morphologic techniques used in research and for the diagnosis of diseases. The technical basis of such methods as immuno-chemistry, in situ hybridization, laser capture microdissection, and confocal microscopy will be presented, as well as some of their applications. The goal of this course is to provide a fairly detailed understanding of these techniques. Professors Mohammed, Ramos-Vara, and Robinson.

Management Sciences:

STAT 691 Statistics Seminar Sem. 1 and 2. Class 1, cr. 1.
A colloquium or seminar course with discussion. Colloquium speakers present current technical results from statistics. A discussion follows in which the speaker and instructor take questions and explain issues in detail. Students give reports on lectures.
