Descripción de las Normas del Curso
1. Este curso sigue el modelo “Discipline-Based Dual Language Immersion Model®”
del Sistema Universitario Ana G. Méndez, el mismo esta diseñado para promover
el desarrollo de cada estudiante como un profesional bilingüe. Cada taller será
facilitado en inglés y español, utilizando el modelo 50/50. Esto significa que cada
taller deberá ser conducido enteramente en el lenguaje especificado. Los
lenguajes serán alternados en cada taller para asegurar que el curso se ofrece
50% en inglés y 50% en español. Para mantener un balance, el módulo debe
especificar que se utilizarán ambos idiomas en el quinto taller, dividiendo el tiempo
y las actividades equitativamente entre ambos idiomas. Si un estudiante tiene
dificultad en hacer una pregunta en el idioma especificado, bien puede escoger el
idioma de preferencia para hacer la pregunta. Sin embargo, el facilitador deberá
contestar la misma en el idioma designado para ese taller. Esto deberá ser una
excepción a las reglas pues es importante que los estudiantes utilicen el idioma
designado. Esto no aplica a los cursos de lenguaje que deben ser desarrollados en
el idioma propio todo en inglés o todo en español según aplique.
2. El curso es conducido en formato acelerado, eso requiere que los estudiantes se
preparen antes de cada taller de acuerdo al módulo. Cada taller requiere un
promedio de diez (10) horas de preparación y en ocasiones requiere más.
3. La asistencia a todos los talleres es obligatoria. El estudiante que se ausente al
taller deberá presentar una excusa razonable al facilitador. El facilitador evaluará
si la ausencia es justificada y decidirá como el estudiante repondrá el trabajo
perdido, de ser necesario. El facilitador decidirá uno de los siguientes: permitirle al
estudiante reponer el trabajo o asignarle trabajo adicional en adición al trabajo a
ser repuesto.
Toda tarea a ser completada antes del taller deberá ser entregada en la fecha
asignada. El facilitador ajustará la nota de las tareas repuestas.
4. Si un estudiante se ausenta a más de un taller el facilitador tendrá las siguientes
opciones:
a. Si es a dos talleres, el facilitador reducirá una nota por debajo basado en la
nota existente.
Philosophical Foundations of Education EDUC 420 6
Prep. 2004. Prof. Carmen Silva, MA, Rev. 2009. Luis E, Morales, MA
b. Si el estudiante se ausenta a tres talleres, el facilitador reducirá la nota a dos
por debajo de la nota existente.
5. La asistencia y participación en clase de actividades y presentaciones orales es
extremadamente importante pues no se pueden reponer. Si el estudiante provee
una excusa válida y verificable, el facilitador determinará una actividad equivalente
a evaluar que sustituya la misma. Esta actividad deberá incluir el mismo contenido
y componentes del lenguaje como la presentación oral o actividad a ser repuesta.
6. En actividades de grupo el grupo será evaluado por su trabajo final. Sin embargo,
cada miembro de grupo deberá participar y cooperar para lograr un trabajo de
excelencia, pero recibirán una calificación individual.
7. Se espera que todo trabajo escrito sea de la autoría de cada estudiante y no
plagiado. Se debe entender que todo trabajo sometido esta citado apropiadamente
o parafraseado y citado dando atención al autor. Todo estudiante debe ser el autor
de su propio trabajo. Todo trabajo que sea plagiado, copiado o presente trazos de
otro será calificado con cero (vea la política de honestidad académica).
8. Si el facilitador hace cambios al módulo o guía de estudio, deberá discutirlos y
entregar copia a los estudiantes por escrito al principio del primer taller.
9. El facilitador establecerá los medios para contactar a los estudiantes proveyendo
su correo electrónico, teléfonos, y el horario disponibles.
10. EL uso de celulares esta prohibido durante las sesiones de clase; de haber una
necesidad, deberá permanecer en vibración o en silencio.
11. La visita de niños y familiares no registrados en el curso no está permitida en el
salón de clases.
12. Todo estudiante esta sujeto a las políticas y normas de conducta y comportamiento
que rigen al SUAGM y el curso.

Filosofía y Metodología Educativa
Este curso está basado en la teoría educativa del Constructivismo.
Constructivismo es una filosofía de aprendizaje fundamentada en la premisa, de que,
reflexionando a través de nuestras experiencias, podemos construir nuestro propio
conocimiento sobre el mundo en el que vivimos.
Cada uno de nosotros genera nuestras propias “reglas “y “métodos mentales” que
utilizamos para darle sentido a nuestras experiencias. Aprender, por lo tanto, es
simplemente el proceso de ajustar nuestros modelos mentales para poder acomodar
nuevas experiencias. Como facilitadores, nuestro enfoque es el mantener una conexión
entre los hechos y fomentar un nuevo entendimiento en los estudiantes. También,
intentamos adaptar nuestras estrategias de enseñanza a las respuestas de nuestros
estudiantes y motivar a los mismos a analizar, interpretar y predecir información.
Existen varios principios para el constructivismo, entre los cuales están:
1. El aprendizaje es una búsqueda de significados. Por lo tanto, el aprendizaje debe
comenzar con situaciones en las cuales los estudiantes estén buscando activamente
construir un significado.
2. Significado requiere comprender todas las partes. Y, las partes deben entenderse en
el contexto del todo. Por lo tanto, el proceso de aprendizaje se enfoca en los
conceptos primarios, no en hechos aislados.
Philosophical Foundations of Education EDUC 420 8
Prep. 2004. Prof. Carmen Silva, MA, Rev. 2009. Luis E, Morales, MA
3. Para enseñar bien, debemos entender los modelos mentales que los estudiantes
utilizan para percibir el mundo y las presunciones que ellos hacen para apoyar dichos
modelos.
4. El propósito del aprendizaje, es para un individuo, el construir su propio significado, no
sólo memorizar las contestaciones “correctas” y repetir el significado de otra persona.
Como la educación es intrínsicamente interdisciplinaria, la única forma válida para
asegurar el aprendizaje es hacer del avalúo parte esencial de dicho proceso,
asegurando que el mismo provea a los estudiantes con la información sobre la calidad
de su aprendizaje.
5. La evaluación debe servir como una herramienta de auto-análisis.
6. Proveer herramientas y ambientes que ayuden a los estudiantes a interpretar las
múltiples perspectivas que existen en el mundo.
7. El aprendizaje debe ser controlado internamente y analizado por el estudiante.

Description of course policies
1. This course follows the Sistema Universitario Ana G. Méndez Discipline-Based Dual
Language Immersion Model® designed to promote each student’s development as a
Dual Language Professional. Workshops will be facilitated in English and Spanish,
strictly using the 50/50 model. This means that each workshop will be conducted
entirely in the language specified. The language used in the workshops will alternate
to insure that 50% of the course will be conducted in English and 50% in Spanish. To
maintain this balance, the course module may specify that both languages will be used
during the fifth workshop, dividing that workshop’s time and activities between the two
languages. If students have difficulty with asking a question in the target language in
which the activity is being conducted, students may choose to use their preferred
language for that particular question. However, the facilitator must answer in the
language assigned for that particular day. This should only be an exception as it is
important for students to use the assigned language. The 50/50 model does not apply
to language courses where the delivery of instruction must be conducted in the
language taught (Spanish or English only).
2. The course is conducted in an accelerated format and requires that students prepare in
advance for each workshop according to the course module. Each workshop requires
an average ten hours of preparation but could require more.
3. Attendance at all class sessions is mandatory. A student that is absent to a workshop
must present the facilitator a reasonable excuse. The facilitator will evaluate if the
absence is justified and decide how the student will make up the missing work, if
applicable. The facilitator will decide on the following: allow the student to make up the
work, or allow the student to make up the work and assign extra work to compensate
for the missing class time.
Assignments required prior to the workshop must be completed and turned in on the
assigned date. The facilitator may decide to adjust the grade given for late
assignments and make-up work.
4. If a student is absent to more than one workshop the facilitator will have the following
options:
Philosophical Foundations of Education EDUC 420 12
Prep. 2004. Prof. Carmen Silva, MA, Rev. 2009. Luis E, Morales, MA
a. If a student misses two workshops, the facilitator may lower one grade based on
the students existing grade.
b. If the student misses three workshops, the facilitator may lower two grades
based on the students existing grade.
5. Student attendance and participation in oral presentations and special class activities
are extremely important as it is not possible to assure that they can be made up. If the
student provides a valid and verifiable excuse, the facilitator may determine a
substitute evaluation activity if he/she understands that an equivalent activity is
possible. This activity must include the same content and language components as the
oral presentation or special activity that was missed.
6. In cooperative activities the group will be assessed for their final work. However, each
member will have to collaborate to assure the success of the group and the
assessment will be done collectively as well as individually.
7. It is expected that all written work will be solely that of the student and should not be
plagiarized. That is, the student must be the author of all work submitted. All quoted
or paraphrased material must be properly cited, with credit given to its author or
publisher. It should be noted that plagiarized writings are easily detectable and
students should not risk losing credit for material that is clearly not their own (see
Academic Honesty Policy).
8. If the Facilitator makes changes to the study guide, such changes should be discussed
with and given to students in writing at the beginning of the first workshop.
9. The facilitator will establish a means of contacting students by providing an email
address, phone number, hours to be contacted and days.
10. The use of cellular phones is prohibited during sessions; if there is a need to have one,
it must be on vibrate or silent mode during class session.
11. Children or family members that are not registered in the course are not allowed to the
classrooms.
12. All students are subject to the policies regarding behavior in the university community
established by the institution and in this course.

Teaching Philosophy and Methodology
This course is grounded in the learning theory of Constructivism. Constructivism is
a philosophy of learning founded on the premise that, by reflecting on our experiences, we
construct our own understanding of the world in which we live.
Each of us generates our own “rules” and “mental models,” which we use to make
sense of our experiences. Learning, therefore, is simply the process of adjusting our
mental models to accommodate new experiences. As teachers, our focus is on making
connections between facts and fostering new understanding in students. We will also
attempt to tailor our teaching strategies to student responses and encourage students to
analyze, interpret and predict information.
There are several guiding principles of constructivism:
1. Learning is a search for meaning. Therefore, learning must start with the issues around
which students are actively trying to construct meaning.
2. Meaning requires understanding wholes as well as parts. And parts must be
understood in the context of wholes. Therefore, the learning process focuses on
primary concepts, not isolated facts.
3. In order to teach well, we must understand the mental models that students use to
perceive the world and the assumptions they make to support those models.
4. The purpose of learning is for an individual to construct his or her own meaning, not
just memorize the "right" answers and regurgitate someone else's meaning. Since
education is inherently interdisciplinary, the only valuable way to measure learning is to
make the assessment part of the learning process, ensuring it provides students with
information on the quality of their learning.
5. Evaluation should serve as a self-analysis tool.
6. Provide tools and environments that help learners interpret the multiple perspectives of
the world.
7. Learning should be internally controlled and mediated by the learner.
