Reading and Technology
3 graduate credit hours
This course looks at and discusses Reading Language Arts in the classroom and how technology can be incorporated. Participants will discuss and analyze various types of reading material, lesson plans, and assessment tools, all relating to the New York State Learning Standards.

This is the website that I created for a graduate course I taught in Summer Session 2, from July 21 to August 1, 2003 at SUNY New Paltz. I will be teaching it again from July 6-16, 2004.
