Reading Assessment and Intervention

Reading Assessment and Intervention: Research to Practice for Classroom Teachers

This asynchronous two week non-credit course is to provide classroom teachers and other educational professionals with foundational insight into:

• the development of core reading processes in all readers,
• reasons why and how students can become at-risk for reading disability or be classified as such,
• models of reading which guide teaching professionals in differentiating instruction,
• an overview of selected intervention strategies and resources which target the core reading skills.

Learning activities presented in this course are appropriate for in-person and remote implementation.

This ten hour course is divided into five modules that address the topics above.  Sessions are asynchronous and participants are encouraged to work at their own pace during the two weeks the course is open, including weekends. Participants will be required to submit a final project – a structured reflection on the content covered in the first three modules of the course and a description of how the content of the final two course modules can be applied in their own practice.

The course will conclude with participant evaluation of course content and activities as professional learning experiences.
