EDUC-206 Methods of Teaching Reading in the Secondary Content Areas, Part II for Regular and Special Education Teachers
Designed specifically for individuals seeking secondary certification, this course builds upon the foundational theories and knowledge of reading from the prerequisite course Methods of Teaching Reading in the Content Area, Part I. Participants will take theory into practice as they become familiar with and demonstrate in class best practices of how to integrate the teaching of reading of content area material with content-specific knowledge. Topics covered in this course will include using assessment to know the learner, putting metacognitive theory into practice, and differentiating instruction for all students. Participants will leave the course with multiple hands-on strategies they can immediately use to make content reading accessible and successful for their students. This course meets the Maryland State Department of Education Reading requirement for an initial certificate in Secondary Education and Generic Special Education Secondary/Adult.
