EDUC 567 Developing Academic Literacies for Engli

The course will prepare the ESL teacher to develop the language and literacy skills ELLs need to be successful in academic settings and to develop a repertoire of strategies that will make content area concepts comprehensible to ELLs across a range of proficiency levels. The course will also address issues related to assessment of language and content area learning for ELLs. The goal of this course is to prepare ESL teachers not only to instruct and assess ELLs effectively, but also to serve as a resource to classroom teachers in the public school setting.
