EDRD 423/523 - Integration of Literacy in Content Areas: Seminar and Field Experience
Semester Hours: Three
Course participants will develop an understanding of how the use of technology, methods, principles, practices, contents and the selection of curricula and reading materials are used to support the development of the middle and secondary student’s overall literacy development. The application will be made to both state and national standards. Students will analyze how the core components of reading, including phonemic awareness, phonics, fluency, comprehension, morphology, syntax, and vocabulary serve to support the understanding of content area text. Identification of reading deficiencies, dyslexia, and other language disabilities will be explored through the lens of the impact on content area acquisition. Students will become competent in applying assessment strategies for the improvement of student learning. A study of mandated assessment and best practices for the instruction of English Language Learners (ELL) will be included. A minimum of ten (10) hours of field experience working with ELL students is required for this course. This course must be taken before student teaching.
Note: Students taking this course for graduate credit must complete all graduate course requirements.
Prerequisites(s): Prerequisites for candidates seeking initial teacher certification: EDUC 203, EDUC 303, and all content area methods courses.
