What teaching strategies must teachers of reading be able to perform and how are these strategies applied effectively in teaching children to read? This course attempts to answer these two important questions. One key element of a successful reading program focuses on the teacher. A brief review of the teacher effectiveness literature is followed by a description of common instructional features associated with the effective teaching of reading: - Assessing students' strengths and weaknesses; - Structuring reading activities around an explicit instructional model; - Providing students with opportunities to learn and apply skills and strategies in authentic reading tasks; - Ensuring that students attend to the learning tasks; - Believing in one's teaching abilities and expecting students to be successful.
