For the final assignment in the course, you will develop and present a professional development training incorporating all of the learning outcomes from the course.
Consider the following prompt:
You are an early childhood literacy facilitator who has been asked by school district administrators to support teachers in their approaches for the delivery of literature and media sources in the schools’ programs.
Now, construct a professional development training that fully articulates the following components of an early childhood literacy program, verifying the effectiveness of your chosen approaches, and sharing your philosophies with all the staff.
Prepare a presentation that includes the following components:
- Overview
- Approaches for delivery of literature (Weeks 1, 4, 5)
- Criteria for selecting high-quality literature (Weeks 2, 5)
- Methods for achieving language goals through literature (Weeks 3, 5, 6)
- Family and community involvement practices to support literacy acquisition (Week 7)
You may use the components of prior weekly assignments that contribute to this overall project. You will narrate your presentation using the media tool embedded within NCUOne; instructions for using this tool are provided in this week’s resources
Length: 8-12 minutes with a minimum of 10 slides, not including title or reference slides. Script for narration should be provided as a Word document.
