The document provides an overview of week 1 of a course focused on culturally and linguistically diverse (CLD) student success. It discusses key vocabulary and concepts related to the sociocultural, linguistic, academic, and cognitive dimensions of CLD learning. Activities are presented to help students understand these dimensions, including creating a vocabulary foldable, discussing the iceberg model of language transfer, and applying concepts like the U-curve hypothesis to their own experiences. The goal is for educators to gain foundational knowledge of best practices for CLD students.

Cognition is the process of perceiving, attending, thinking, remembering, and knowing. Culture and cognition are inseparable elements of each individual. Cognitive development and cognitive learning style depend largely on the diverse student’s cultural background and experience. Identifying the cognitive learning styles of the CLD student contributes directly to the development of appropriate pre-referral interventions and IEP’s.
