Course Description: Diagnostic procedures and materials in reading for teachers in self-contained and departmentalized classrooms from kindergarten through junior high school. Field-based activities will be provided in conjunction with ELE 4000. Rationale: This course complements ELE 3280 - Developmental Reading in the Elementary School in that it provides future teachers with the skills, strategies and theories necessary to provide corrective reading instruction within the regularclassroom. The overall goal of this course is to provide future teachers with the knowledge base necessary for appropriate use of diagnostic teaching procedures and materials within the regular classroom. Emphasis will be placed on understanding how students learn to read, strategies for improving a student's reading achievement, and how to become a diagnostic/prescriptive teacher of reading. Future teachers will be made aware of factors that support student learning or place students "at risk" (e.g., economic, cultural, social) and some ways to manage these factors in the regular classroom. This course is required for elementary education students enrolled as Early Childhood or Elementary Education (General/Middle School Options) Majors. Learning Model: The information-processing model (Joyce, Weil & Showers, 1992) enhances student attempts to comprehend by acquiring and organizing data, sensing problems/generating solutions, and developing concepts (i.e., including the language needed to convey them). The model focuses on input, processing and output. As the content is taught, the teacher directs attention to the methods and materials used to present the data (e.g., advance organizers) andhas students focus on what is occurring as it is assimilated (e.g., inductive thinking and questioning). This model providesthe student with information while emphasizing concept attainment and hypothesis testing.
