    The Literacy semester merges the areas of reading instruction, language arts education, and children's literature. Teacher candidates participate in three instructional modules and are assigned to a local school to do field work focusing on literacy. Writing is used extensively to enhance learning and, therefore, quality of writing is assessed throughout the course. Module 1 focuses on student learning outcomes and the knowledge base that leading teachers must have in order to facilitate student learning. Module 2 is delivered in school settings, or in similar organizations, such as local literacy support agencies, the School of Education Reading Clinic, and the Saturday tutorial services offered through the University Learning Skills Center for urban students. In this module, teacher candidates compare local instructional practices in literacy with regional and national initiatives, and teach individuals, small groups, or whole classes. The focus is on instructional planning and practice, and formative evaluation. Module 3 addresses the service of reading, language arts and related literature to all aspects of pre-school, elementary, and middle years education including the relationship of literacy to other areas of the school curriculum. Thematic instruction, projects, and interdisciplinary activities are referenced to scholarly research. Teacher candidates will be linked through technology to regional, national and international schools and to expert practitioners found in local school districts.
