EDU 214 - Critical Literacy for Diverse Learners4 credits (Fall) This course will examine literacy and literacy education from historical, theoretical, critical, and pedagogical perspectives. Guiding questions include: How do schools define literacy? To what extent do schools draw upon variously situated students’ home-based and community-based literacy practices? How do students acquire literacy in a second language if they do not possess literacy in their primary home language? What is the relation between critical literacy practices (e.g., media literacy, new literacies) and school-based, academic literacy?
Prerequisite: EDU 101 with grade S, C, or better. Instructor: Jones, Larson
