EDU-546 Literacy for Diverse Learners
Course will build on candidates' existing knowledge of working with diverse learners, and expand on it with topics related to exploring strategies for addressing a number of sociocultural frameworks looking at issues such as diversity, race, culture, language, and social hierarchies, and their connections to literacy. Candidates will engage in identifying appropriate instructional approaches and literacy services for students who are diverse in race, ethnicity, culture, language, social class, religion, disability, gender, sexual orientation, and ability. Current research contributing to our understanding of working with diverse learners and literacy will be examined.
