Raising Readers: Ready to Read and Write with Digital Media (PreK)

Course Description:

"Raising Readers: Ready to Read and Write with Digital Media" demonstrates how preschool teachers and care givers can use digital media - specifically PBS programming and online resources-as a teaching tool to help young children develop essential early literacy and reading skills. Learners will explore how to use different types of stories with digital multimedia to teach young children early reading and writing skills. Learners will be engaged in a collaborative experience as they learn some different ways to share stories with children through oral storytelling, interactive read-alouds, and creating new stories together while interacting with PBS story characters in online games and activities designed to help build early literacy skills. The course provides research-based articles, video examples, online interactives, and online and onscreen resources from PBS. We suggest that learners complete RDLA051: Raising Readers: Preparing Preschoolers for Success before taking this course.

NOTE: To complete this course, learners need access to a preschool-aged child and a computer with Internet access for the child to use.

Unless otherwise indicated, this course is not usually available for graduate credit.
