EDUC 642A - Language and Literacy 1A: Theory and Practice

Credits 2
This course is the first part of the EDUC 642 course when offered in two parts. This course examines children using language; both oral and written. While closely observing students, candidates learn to analyze the strategies that readers use as they read and write and to use their observations as a guide for instructional decisions. These observations and field experience are integrated with a study of research in the fields of language acquisition, linguistics, reading and writing.
