Overview

Literacy Instruction All Grades (B-12) is offered by Niagara University. Literacy abilities are the foundation of contemporary B-12 schooling and for most current careers, yet many students struggle to attain the expected literacy benchmarks.

Key Facts

Even though many dedicated educators have guided students in acquiring strong literacy skills, students still need more effective literacy teachers to help them reach these achievement goals. To this end, Niagara University’s master’s degree program in literacy instruction includes the most current theory and practice in literacy education and is designed to develop highly qualified literacy educators who can guide B-12 students to excellence in literacy. Students gain professional skills and knowledge in both childhood and adolescent literacy development through course content and professional experiences. Graduates will be qualified for New York state initial certification as reading specialists leading to professional certification.
