Teacher Support, Educational Resources, and the ASOP Lending Library

ASOP's programs include Vermont in-service programs, overseas programs for teachers, school leaders, and high school students, curriculum design and instructional support, visiting teachers from Asia and school-to-school exchanges. Many of these programs are described in detail in other parts of this website. Specific educational resources and support programs include:

Curriculum Design and Instruction
Participants in ASOP inservice and overseas programs will be assisted in designing curriculum units according to the Vermont Framework of Standards and Learning Opportunities. Workshops and technical support will be offered throughout the year, and Asian nationals will visit classrooms upon request.  For assistance in designing curriculum units, please email Kunie Renaud, ASOP office coordinator.

Online educational materials, Asian webquests, and ASOP Resource Lending Library
Please check out our units available on-line, webquests, suggested literature for classroom used, and ASOP resources available for loan.

To schedule a visit to the ASOP Resource Lending Library, contact Kunie Renaud, ASOP office coordinator.
