Reading is a crucial life skill: it equips children with the ability to communicate, think critically, navigate the world independently, access information, and acquire knowledge from multiple sources. Effective reading instruction is based on a range of needs, the complexity of language, developmental variation among students, continual assessment and adjustment. In this course, educators learn to implement skillful teaching practices that can transform students into master readers.

Through a comprehensive understanding of the history of reading instruction, research, and a reflection on their own teaching practices, teachers will be able to narrow reading gaps in their classrooms. Participants are expected to have regular access to the internet, be proficient at uploading and downloading content as well as navigating files online and be able to use word processing software. Assignments include planning lessons, developing materials, writing, practicing skills, and recording a sample teaching session.
