Inhalt:
This volume foregrounds the disciplinary literacy approach to college teaching and learning with in-depth discussions of theory and research, as well as extensive classroom illustrations. Built upon the current work of READ (Reading Effectively Across the Disciplines), a disciplinary literacy program at New York City College of Technology, it presents a broad collection of methodologies, strategies, and best practices with discipline-specific considerations. It offers an overview of the program in relation to evidence-based research and practices in college disciplinary learning, describing how the unique model of the program addresses the literacy needs of students in STEM and professional studies. Chapter authors, including administrators, literacy specialists, and content experts discuss the program design, professional development, and assessments in READ. They also outline discipline-specific practices to foster disciplinary literacy pedagogy and college success in five contentareas, including Accounting, Architecture, Biology, Electromechanical Engineering, and Mathematics.
