Session #1 of a 4-part series.
Participants may register for any or all of the four workshops, or register for a [3-credit graduate course.]
This series will focus on the use of literacy assessment data to identify and address the needs of students who require targeted intervention. Participants will learn how to use formal and informal assessments to pinpoint the barriers to a student’s literacy development. They will then learn how to use this diagnostic information to understand the learner’s specific needs, and identify evidence-based interventions to guide instructional planning.
Participants will gain a set of practical tools and resources to both support instructional planning and guide team discussions and decisions around literacy.
Participants will be able to:
- Analyze and interpret diagnostic assessment data to determine specific barriers to reading and writing development.
- Connect diagnostic findings to appropriate, evidence-based interventions.
- Apply tools and strategies to monitor progress, adjust instruction, and support collaborative problem-solving for students needing targeted literacy intervention.
