EDRD 460 - New Literacies and Literacy Engagement

(3 credits)

This course helps teachers balance the strengths of traditional text-centric reading materials with the demands and opportunities of increasingly diverse environments for interactive digital literacies. Special attention is given to supporting authentic engagement through blending of multiple literacies, student-driven dialogue, analysis of authors’ intended meaning, and interrogation in text in light of multiple viewpoints. Prerequisite: EDUC 327 - Foundations of Literacy, Elementary and Early Childhood. Grade only. Offered annually.
