uri://dpi.wi.gov/MediumOfInstructionDescriptor	BLD	Blended Learning	Use this for blended learning. Blended learning is a formal education program in which a student learns at least in part through online delivery of content and instruction with some element of student control over time, place, path, and/or pace AND at least in part at a supervised brick-and-mortar location away from home.
	CB	Center-based instruction	Centers are organized based on content or activity areas. One classroom may have separate centers for pretend play, reading, art, science and blocks.
	Corr	Correspondence instruction	Correspondence education is a formal educational process under which the institution provides instructional materials, by mail or electronic transmission, including examinations on the materials, to students who are separated from the instructor.
	Dist	Distance Learning (other than online)	Participation by a student in a course where the educational materials are provided through cable television, satellite classes, videotapes, or correspondence courses.
	F2F	Face-to-face instruction	Use this value to represent the traditional classroom. Face-to-face instruction is when the instructor and the students of an educational institution are in a place devoted to instruction and where the teaching and learning take place through in-person contact.

	Tele	Televised	The inclusion of televised documentaries, movies, etc. that relate to the curriculum and enhance a student's understanding.
	Video	Telepresence/video conference	This code refers to a set of technologies which allow students to feel as if they were present, to give the appearance of being present, or to have an effect of presence, via telerobotics, at a place other than their true location, e.g., connecting to a remote classroom using video technology.

What to Submit/retrieve

1.0

Sending the Language of Instruction on the class level as part of Roster data.

LEAs should send the primary “predominant” language of Instruction (not the language of learner).

SIS vendors should send the language of Instruction (instructionLanguageDescriptor) on /Section.
SIS vendors should send data if a course is taught in other languages. Otherwise, leave as Null/Blank.
If instructionLanguageDescriptor is not provided, DPI assumes language of Instruction is Eng.

There are over 400 values for language. See the Swagger documentation for descriptor values https://uaapps.dpi.wi.gov/EdFiSwagger/index.html?urls.primaryName=Descriptors#/languageDescriptorsMediumOfInstructionDescriptor
