Prerequisites: EDMU 520.

This course prepares teacher candidates to design and deliver inclusive, standards-aligned literacy instruction that promotes students’ meaning making, language development, and effective expression across content areas. Candidates learn to support diverse learners including English learners and students with literacy-related disabilities through asset-based pedagogy, translanguaging, and differentiated strategies. Emphasis is placed on using formative and diagnostic assessments to inform instruction, and on integrating educational technology to engage students and promote digital literacy.

Prerequisites: EDUU 510, and 512.

No prerequisites are needed if candidates are using this course to obtain a Multiple Subject Authorization to be added to a Single Subject credential. This course provides candidates an opportunity to study teaching and learning in the areas of history, social science, English language arts, and visual and performing arts. As candidates examine and explore these content areas, they will focus on methods to apply their learning in the elementary classroom. Candidates will develop integrated lessons to demonstrate mastery in-cross-disciplinary learning and assessment. A minimum of 5 hours of fieldwork is required for this course.
