Program Overview

This course prepares you to implement the research-driven model of explicit instruction into your elementary reading classroom. In this course, you will learn how to utilize the explicit instruction model to select the correct reading behavior or skill for your student or groups, to build a plan aligned to student goals, and to implement the lesson into your classroom. You will also be provided with an assortment of tools and resources to help you seamlessly implement your new training. You will apply these ideas to an implementation process through an action plan design, resource development and analysis of research to view applicability in the classroom. A final implementation plan will allow you to showcase how you plan to specifically implement course ideas into a current or future classroom.
