Course Description

Designed for teachers and other educators working with students across ages and subject areas, this course focuses on developing a useful set of concepts and approaches to guide students' critical reading. The members of the class will explore and examine ways of conceptualizing critical reading, and they will evaluate curricula, tools, resources and standards across content areas with critical reading as the focus. Special attention will be given to ways of working with “new texts and technologies” especially the Internet with its varied text structures and formats.
