STEAM & English in the Public School System

The U.S. Mission to Brazil is seeking proposals for a 2-week exchange program in the U.S. for 54 representatives from Brazil's 26 states and the Federal District, focusing on the teaching of English through content (using the CBI/CLIL approaches) and STEAM education. The program aims to improve the participants' knowledge of best practices in the U.S. educational system, improve their leadership skills, and build a strong network for future collaboration. The program will include meetings with key stakeholders, school visits, classroom observation, opportunities to co-teach with a local teacher, and cultural excursions. • The program will focus on Content-Based Instruction and leadership. • The program will include a 2-week online interaction after the face-to-face exchange. • The program will provide opportunities for participants to develop English teaching skills and methodology. • The program will enhance understanding of the U.S. and international cultures. • The program will develop a professional development plan for the dissemination of best practices.
