his 6-credit course, featuring the co-requirement of EDUC 375 (a 150-hour minimum fieldwork component), provides intensive instruction in evidence-based literacy instruction from birth through grade 12. Grounded in the Science of Reading and Scarborough’s Rope, the curriculum covers foundational skills through advanced text comprehension. Participants apply research-validated co-teaching models, assessment data, and assistive technologies to design differentiated instruction for struggling readers, English language learners/speakers of diverse languages, and students with disabilities. This comprehensive approach fosters a culturally responsive environment that supports the social-emotional and literacy development of all students.
