EDUC 582 - Multicultural Literature for Children and Adolescents: A Critical Perspective


3 Credits
This course combines a critical analysis of multicultural literary and informational texts with the art of involving readers in literacy practices that promote gender, racial and ethnic social justice. Master’s degree students evaluate and redevelop multicultural literature in the curriculum as they collaborate to meet the diverse needs of current and future learners. Project-based fieldwork is required in programs using the literature standards from the Connecticut Common Core and International Reading Association/ National Council of Teachers of English. Emphasis is on the teacher as an advocate for equitable change.
