MISSION
Bridge the gap between two cultures and empower Hindi Language Learners with quality education in Hindi. Hindi Language Program mission is to promote Hindi. HLP will act as a resource for our international students for learning Hindi.
Hindi Language Program (HLP) is taught by keeping in mind class-specific learning processes along with state-wide curricular expectations. HLP programs are designed with the idea that learning is a process. HLP focuses on empowering students to understand, speak, and write Hindi. To further children’s learning experience teachers will give timely feedback by formative assessment. There will be weekly, monthly and yearly assessments.
Listening and Speaking is a very important skill in the language learning process. In HLP we expect students to listen and then speak from their own viewpoints. As the student progresses in the HLP class, their ability to read books, articles, and signs becomes the main focus. Reading and understanding material and then expressing it in their own words through speech and writing is an expectation of our program.
Curricular expectations explicitly define what each child should know, and what can be achieved during their time in the class. These are not particularly assessed but achieved over the period of a particular stage. As learning continues, the student makes progress towards these long term targets. The learning outcomes are measured in assessments in accordance with the expected level of learning on the part of the student.
Learning indicators are supposed to provide evidence of learning and other signs of developmental changes taking place in a child's growth. These learning indicators can be used to mark certain goals in a child's learning at different stages. Learning indicators help teachers and students achieve both the curriculum expectations and the learning outcomes. Learning indicators have a broad range across the classes and stages and the aim is to learn in a spiral way not in a linear way.
The learning indicators establish a measure to help all stakeholders (students, teachers, and parents) in numerous ways:
HLP is an inclusive program which caters to all students with different learning abilities.
Teaching
and learning should be in a comfortable environment where students can feel valued about themselves,
their surroundings and their desire to learn. However, if, even after repeated teaching and
learning, a child still struggles, then we have to address those needs by paying extra attention and
for that teachers have to be attentive to recognize the challenges in learning. For example, if a
child is constantly pronouncing the particular consonant च as छ, or writing च as ज, then the teacher
has to be alert and correct the mistake with repeated practice. Kids, with any disability for
example poor eyesight, who can't see properly need to be put in front and teachers need to be
mindful of his learning disability.
The Avant STAMP™ (STAndards-based Measurement of Proficiency) language assessment was originally created at the University of Oregon’s Center for Applied Second Language Studies (CASLS). Its purpose is to improve language-learning outcomes, support excellence in language programs, and enable language credentialing. Avant STAMP 4S is recommended for college credit by the American Council on Education (ACE), the same educational body that has provided credit recommendations to institutions of higher education for College Board Advanced Placement (AP) Examinations, Cambridge Assessments, and ACT subject tests. This provides opportunities for students to earn credit or be placed in higher-level courses to advance their language skills. Universities across the U.S. are recognizing Avant STAMP and creating pathways to higher education for language learners everywhere. The Avant test dates are August 12th at 4pm and August 26th at 4pm.
