EDU 331 Methods in the Teaching of Language Arts II
This course will allow pre-service teachers to deepen their knowledge and
application of literacy-related instructional approaches, particularly for elementary
Cycles 2 and 3. It prepares the candidates to plan and design learning that leads
students to work critically with all kinds of print, digital texts and multi-model
sources, contributing to the development of their language arts competencies.
Pre-service teachers will explore: the role of Language Arts in helping learners
develop a critical understanding of the world, how to apply literacy practices in
the classroom (including new literacies, multiliteracies, critical literacies, and so
on) to support examination of concepts across the curriculum, and application of
new trends and appropriate assessment tools relevant to literacy practices across subject areas.
Prerequisite or Co-requisite: EDU 321.
