Mission Statement:
The WOU Reading Endorsement program focuses on preparing K-12 teachers to be reading specialists or to improve their knowledge and skills in teaching reading. This 24-credit graduate program focuses on reading theory, curriculum, assessment, and strategies to enhance and broaden both reading specific knowledge and other responsibilities encountered by classroom teacher, resource teacher, and reading specialist. The program leads to an add-on endorsement to an Oregon teaching license.
Outcomes:
1. Candidates will demonstrate the knowledge, skills, and dispositions necessary for effective educational practice in the specific role of the reading specialist as outlined by the International Reading Association¿s standards for reading professionals.
2. Candidates will understand and embrace a holistic approach to reading instruction and assessment that considers the social, cultural, cognitive, and linguistic aspects of literacy acquisition and meaning making.
3. Candidates will be able to locate, incorporate and utilize multiple sources of authentic methods and materials for theoretically, culturally, and developmentally appropriate instruction.
For Dean Review only:
How and when will the effectiveness of these changes be determined?
The request came from the dean of COE.
