Degree Plan
The coursework for the Show Me Multiliteracy project will be offered entirely online. Below is a sample schedule of program courses. Courses offered each semester will vary.
Details
The Show Me Multiliteracy grant program provideds tuition and fees for participants to receive 30 hours of graduate-level coursework (shown below). When participants complete the grant program, they will have both a TESOL Certificate through MSU (this will show up on students' transcripts) AND the K-12 ELL Endorsement through DESE (this will show up on students' teaching certificates).
In addition, participants may choose to take two additional courses (6 credit hours - one of these courses shown in this degree plan) to complete the MSIS degree. One of these courses may be covered by the grant while the other course will be self-pay. This is completely optional and up to the participant.
