EDUO 9361: CORE Online Language & Literacy Academy (OL&LA)

The Online Language & Literacy Academy (OL&LA) Secondary is an asynchronous course that personalizes professional learning for literacy by integrating cutting-edge reading science with techniques tailored to a wide range of students at the secondary level, including those with diverse language backgrounds like Multilingual Learners, English language variety speakers, and students with dyslexia. Participants interact with colleagues in a cohort as they reflect on the course content, including readings from research and CORE’s Teaching Reading Sourcebook, Third Edition, and Assessing Reading: Multiple Measures, Revised Second Edition.

The highly engaging modules, completed independently during the course dates, include video models, narrated screencasts, interactive activities, simulations, reflections, self-checks, and online discussion forums. Depending on the course pathway purchased, participants can have direct contact with a personalized CORE facilitator. This version of the course includes three live webinars.

This course is for individuals or teams of secondary school educators who want to learn effective standards-aligned and evidence-based reading practices for all learners. Participants are expected to have regular computer access and proficiency with email and current Internet browsers.
