LTED 626 - Diagnosis and Remediation (Secondary)


Stresses the application of the theoretical knowledge of the reading process, recognition of the specific needs of different students, knowledge of instructional strategies, use of technology, and a grasp of methods of assessment to diagnose a student’s strengths and needs. Assessment and teaching are presented as dual tracks on which the teacher moves forward while addressing the specific needs of a reader, and consequently, learning more about the student. The course underscores and stresses the need to use assessment results to plan and implement instruction to accelerate the progress of poor readers. Classes are designed to interweave assessment and instruction- the assessment being the warp through which the remediation or weft is woven. A field-based component is an integral part of the course, allowing for the thorough integration of theory and practice. 30 hours fieldwork required.
