GED 534 - Literacy Assessment and Instruction

This course is designed to help licensed teachers deepen their understanding of assessment, instruction, and intervention in reading. Together, we will explore a wide variety of formative and summative literacy assessments, as well as examine the relationship between assessment and instruction/intervention. Using assessment data, students will determine students’ strengths and needs, and make recommendations for instruction and intervention. Participants must have access to an individual student for a minimum of 60 minutes per week in order to complete the requirements for the case study assignment. This course meets the Assessment requirement of the Reading/English Language Arts Endorsement program at Saint Michael’s College.
