Tool Search: Dual Language
The Dual Language Immersion (DLI) tool tracks a student's progress in a DLI program. Dual language programs aim to help students develop high levels of language proficiency and literacy in both program languages, attain high levels of academic achievement, and develop an appreciation and understanding of multiple cultures. This tool allows users to add, edit, or delete Dual Language Immersion student records. Users may also print a summary of all Dual Language Immersion records for the selected student. The idata fields described below are specific to Texas. For more information about the tool, including how to add/modify records, please see the core Dual Language Immersion article.
