LTED 690 - Capstone Seminar

In this culminating experience, students will examine current trends and issues in literacy education. In addition, they will acquire an orientation to the various roles of a literacy specialist and clarify the expectations of various stakeholders - administrators, teachers, parents and children - have for their performance. In this their final semester, degree candidates will synthesize the appreciations, understandings, and knowledge they have gained through their study and habits they have developed. The product of the synthesis will be a major reflective essay. They will also complete their Teacher Action Research Project and professional portfolio. This seminar is a collaborative forum for presenting their TARPS and portfolios to an audience of colleagues as well as visiting professionals.
