Link Reading Science to Practice.

Enrolling now for the May 5, 2025 start.

¹ú²úÓ´Ó´'s Reading and Literacy Instruction program prepares candidates to use scientifically researched evidence-based practices in curriculum, instruction, and assessment for general and specialized education for grades Prek-12. Our program focuses on learning experiences that combine cognitive, neuroscientific, and educational research. These experiences help students build capacity to meet the needs of all learners across diverse settings. We focus on the science of reading so students learn a structured literacy approach to teach reading, writing and spelling using direct, explicit, systematic, cumulative, diagnostic and multi-modal practices. Online instruction-led learning experiences include frequent collaboration, guided inquiry, and deliberate practice.

The Reading and Literacy program offers a Master of Science in Education (MSEd) and an Education Specialist Degree (EdS), an advanced degree beyond a master’s.

• a deep preparation in the structures of language, oral language, phonemic awareness, phonics, spelling, syntax, vocabulary, morphology, text comprehension, written expression, and fluency.
• experiences in developing skills to serve in leadership, coaching, and intervention roles.
