Disciplinary Literacy
Sharing Expert Practices with Students to Support Reading, Writing, and Speaking in the Disciplines
The Common Core standards include disciplinary literacy standards in an effort to emphasize that in order for students to meaningfully study a discipline, students must understand how literacy is used in that discipline (Shanahan & Shanahan, 2016). Disciplinary literacy involves the use of reading, reasoning, investigating, speaking, and writing required to learn and form complex content knowledge appropriate to a particular discipline. Through this blended learning experience, participants will engage in activities to understand disciplinary literacy and it’s implications for teaching and learning. They will, then, be guided to resources that will help them better understand specific disciplinary practices and strategies to support them. Partcipants will identify strategies they can bring back to their schools and classrooms.
Objectives
Participants will:•Understand the distinction between literacy, content area literacy and disciplinary literacy.•Consider how to make expert practices in the disciplines accessible to students. •Engage in a blended learning model to both understand key concepts and personalize the learning for each participant.•Learn and identify strategies for embedding literacy in all content areas and schools.
