In this course, candidates develop, implement, and evaluate interventions for students who have significant reading and/or writing difficulties, including dyslexia and/or delays in the stages of literacy development. Candidates will design plans to address the varied challenges that students may encounter as they develop literacy skills. Effective interventions in various components of literacy, and the issues involved in designing a comprehensive literacy intervention plan will be addressed.
