EDN 563 - Diagnostic Reading Instruction

3.00 credit hours
(Same as: EDN 463.) Students will be introduced to the nature of literacy development and the learning difficulties children may face as they are developing as readers. The focus of the course will be on the interactive view of reading ability and disability, which suggests that reading is the process of constructing meaning through interaction between the reader, the text, and the context of the reading situation. Students will be exposed to a variety of alternative teaching strategies and materials to help students solve their problems with reading. Emphasis will be placed on a holistic and ongoing approach to the diagnostic process and the relationship between diagnostic assessment and instructional planning.

Prerequisite(s): EDN 462/EDN 562  (Reading Assessment Tools and Strategies) and concurrent enrollment in EDN 464/EDN 564 .
