Learning to Read

Catalog description

Learning to Read: From Research to Best Practice. Three semester hours. The 21st century began with a renewed call to "leave no child behind" in learning to read. But how can this be accomplished? This course is designed to examine the major approaches to beginning reading that have been advocated and practiced over the past 50 years. Participants will answer the questions "Can all children learn to read?" and "What does the research say about beginning reading instruction?" Prerequisite: Doctoral level.
