Literacy Education

 

Literacy is a cornerstone of education, and 21st century literacy skills include so much more than reading and writing. Our MSED in Literacy Education program prepares teachers with a deeper understanding of the processes associated with learning to read, leading to both increased effectiveness in classroom instruction and expanded career opportunities as a certified literacy specialist.
