EDU 343 - Diagnosis and Correction of Reading Problems

(3 credits)
Diagnosis and Correction of Reading Problems focuses both on the “knowledge of teaching” and the “knowledge of learning” components of Northwestern College’s “Teacher as Servant” Model, with a significant emphasis on the role of the assessment and remediation of reading problems. Students will study the design, development, implementation and evaluation of remediation for students with reading problems, including diagnostic and prescriptive procedures for individuals and groups of students. Formal and informal assessment procedures will be examined.

Note: A 10 hour practicum experience is a key component of this course.

Prerequisite: EDU326 and admission into teacher education program.
