Disciplinary Literacy: The Other Disciplines is intended as both a textbook and a handbook. It will give conent area literacy teachers/professors a much needed textbook to fully address all of their candidates' needs, not just the needs of traditional content. The majority of states (47) require all preservice teaching candidates to successfully complete a content area reading/literacy course; making the course as relevant as possible to all teacher candidates is essential.
Disciplinary Literacy: The Other Disciplines will also serve as a handbook filled with practical strategies, suggestions, handouts, and examples for the content literacy teachers/professors to easily incorporate into their courses. Preservice teaching candidates will also be able to use this text as a resource. Also, they will be able to employ many of the practical strategies, etc. in their own classrooms.
