READ 542 - A Critical Review of Reading and Writing Across the Content Areas(3 credits)
Prerequisite: READ 550
In this interactive course, teachers will learn the rationale for and application of various relevant and current literacy strategies they can employ across the content areas and in the elementary school classroom. Direct and indirect strategies for teaching vocabulary, reading processes, skill acquisition, study skills, levels of questioning and writing connections will be analyzed and utilized as they apply to different content material. Additionally, teachers will learn how to critically analyze and evaluate different texts in order to discover varied author perspectives regarding the same topic. In this way, the reader will move beyond the texts’ message to question, examine and dispute power relations that may exist between readers and authors. Offered annually.
