Description

Dual-enrollment courses are often taught by secondary teachers who are new to teaching college-level courses or college teachers who are new to teaching in secondary schools. What kinds of support and resources can help both groups be highly effective? How do we bridge conversations on how we talk and think about writing between high school and college faculty members?
