EDRE 3305 - Teaching Reading in Content Area

Introduces techniques for integrating multiple avenues of reading comprehension, vocabulary acquisition, and communication to access subject content. Literature-rich strategies for reading in early childhood, middle childhood, and adolescent to young adult licensures are emphasized while students explore writing, speaking, and expressive arts to support and enhance communication across the curriculum. Students design, deliver, and evaluate projects based on their certification/licensure area and in support of International Literacy Association Standards (Standard 2 - Instructional Strategies and Curriculum Materials, and Standard 3 - Assessment, Diagnosis, and Evaluation). Students incorporate their knowledge of cultural diversity and literacy instruction within these designs/projects, and in connection to literature-based instruction.
