Summer 2020 – FLT Courses

This post will be updated as the semester approaches. (Last updated 4/26/2020)

MAFLT courses continue to run as scheduled.

If you are trying to enroll in FLT 885 or 898, if you are enrolled in a program at MSU other than the MAFLT, or if the course you want is full, you will need an override. The Override Request Form includes options for all three of these situations. See How to Enroll.

Summer Timeline: This summer all MAFLT courses will run on Full Summer schedules (no Summer A or Summer B schedules). Courses begin the week of May 11 and end no later than August 13. Most courses will have due dates every week on the same day of the week. See below for other important dates.

Travel and other absences during Summer 2020: Due dates can be adjusted if you give your instructor advance notice. However, if you expect to have limited access to internet or other limitations on your ability to participate for more than two weeks, please discuss your plans now with the MAFLT Director (Dr. Lanier – see Faculty) and consider registering for your course(s) in a future semester.

  • FLT 807 Foreign Language Teaching Methods
  • FLT 808 Assessment for Foreign Language Teaching
