Description
This graduate education course is designed to help educators develop in-depth theoretical and practical knowledge of effective, research-based assessment and intervention for struggling readers of all ages who have reached a primer level, but whose reading abilities are below mid-grade three level. The course follows a "practicum model," in which educators build a conceptual framework for reading development and effective intervention through a year-long, mentored tutoring experience.
