ENG 343 - Instructional Methods for Teaching Secondary English I (2)

This course is the first half of the required methods courses for English education majors. In this course, students will begin the transition from student of English to teacher of English. This course will specifically focus on assessment–especially in regard to writing–within the secondary English classroom. Students will learn and utilize Wiggins & McTighe’s Backwards Design in order to create and apply rubrics and other forms of formative and summative assessments.
