ED5555 Foundational Theories in Reading Instruction
In this course for P-12 classroom teachers, learners develop a case study based on an analysis of how effectively their school or district's literacy program meets the needs of their diverse population of students. Using reading theory, research, best practices and resources provided by professional organizations, learners make recommendations for ways to teach literacy reading and writing across the curriculum. Learners also develop a year-long professional development plan as part of their research. Cannot be fulfilled by transfer or credit for prior learning except by coursework from Minnesota schools with approved licensure programs.
