SUMMARY:NABE 2026 Conference Presentation: From Support to Soar: Decreasing Scaffolds to Accelerate Academic Language
DESCRIPTION:Event: NABE Conference 2026\nLocation: Room E259\nDate & Time: February 11\, 2026 | 1:20 PM – 2:40 PM\nSession Format: Presentation\nPresenter(s): \nMaria Cieslak (Center for Applied Linguistics) \nDescription:\nWhat if the key to language acceleration isn’t adding more support\, but strategically taking it away? Join us for an energizing session that flips the script on scaffolding. Discover how purposeful de-scaffolding empowers multilingual learners to take ownership of academic language and thrive in rigorous content. Through real classroom examples\, interactive strategies\, and practical tools\, you’ll explore how to gradually release responsibility\, boost student agency\, and elevate academic discourse. Let’s shift from support-heavy to student-driven – and watch language soar!
