Language, Learning, Literacy

Students examine the development of literacy beginning at infancy. They discuss the developmental stages of reading and writing along with techniques used to facilitate skill development. A variety of intervention programs are reviewed, as well as approaches to promote literacy development for individuals where English is not their first language. Students examine cultural considerations for literacy intervention such as Indigenous experiences and story-telling practices.

Students registering for credit courses for the first time must declare a program at the point of registration. Declaring a program does not necessarily mean students must complete a program, individual courses may be taken for skill improvement and upgrading.
