ME.MED.CIRD - Curriculum & Instruction: Reading & Literacy, MED

Program Overview

Program Description

The Literacy program is designed to help classroom teachers at both the elementary and secondary levels become literacy professionals by deepening their understanding of literacy processes, purposes, and development and broadening their range of instructional, assessment, and intervention approaches to have the greatest possible impact on their students' learning. Candidates in the program will develop the confidence to make evidence based instructional/intervention decisions in their own classrooms or as reading/literacy professionals. They will also develop the literacy leadership skills to analyze and design curriculum and professional development across multiple tiers of instruction, and to advocate appropriate practice with parents, colleagues, the larger community, and policy makers. The Ashland University M.Ed. in Reading and Literacy provides the option of satisfying all requirements for the Ohio Reading Endorsement. There is a five-seven year limit on literacy coursework that can be transferred into this program.
