GED 540 - TIME for Teachers™

Time for Teachers Online is a 45-hour graduate level course intended to provide a conceptual understanding of the workings of our language at the word level as these relate to early learning of reading and spelling. This course draws on current research findings and developmental models to help teachers understand children’s evolving insights into the workings of our alphabetic print system and develop ways to apply this understanding to classroom practice. Teachers will gain an awareness of the power and usefulness of explicit, systematic instruction in phonemic awareness and phonics toward fostering literacy for all learners.

Credits: 3 cr.
