View Academic Calendar
This course explores a variety of issues and strategies related to literacy and literacy assessment in the early and middle grades. Cases focus upon the problems and opportunities related to literacy instruction for at-risk student populations. Course participants will develop instructional and leadership skills needed for teaching emergent, beginning and instructional readers and address the education of diverse student populations. Using the cases as a launching point, teachers will be given the opportunity to participate in on-line discussions regarding beliefs, best practices, challenges, current research, and ways to apply them to their own teaching practice.
