Intervention in Literacy

This competency-based course will focus on the knowledge, skills, abilities and dispositions teachers need to teach literacy to special education students. This course will provide evidence-based research and teaching opportunities that will be developed, implemented, analyzed, evaluated and refined during the 16 weeks of clinical experience. This iterative process facilitates the development of skills and abilities needed to meet the needs of students with disabilities and will include the following: (a) contextualizing learners and learning; (b) assessing student learning; (c) planning and preparation; (d) addressing literacy models, concepts, methods and strategies; and (e) linking student learning progress to the knowledge, skills, abilities and dispositions of the teacher candidate. With the support of the college faculty and the cooperating practitioner, the teacher candidate will actively engage in on-going self-assessment, focusing on the refinement of teaching literacy.
