This course focuses on the application of research and theory to practice in school-based instructional settings. Graduate students will continue to develop and apply knowledge of best practices in literacy assessment and instructional intervention to their work with students who struggle in learning to read and write. Students will administer and interpret results of carious screening and diagnostic instruments during individual and small group intervention sessions within schools. They will plan and implement effective instructional interventions based on children's identified areas of strengths and needs. Video analysis will be integrated throughout the semester to prompt a reflective stance toward instruction and to further support graduate students' professional growth. As a final project, students will prepare and share with each child's classroom teacher and reading specialist a final case report the summarizes assessment results and provides a detailed report of the instructional intervention and student progress. 2cr. 2nd sem.
