| Abstract: | Aligning educator preparation programs (EPPs) to the science of reading (SOR) is intended to ensure that elementary education, early childhood, special education educators licensed in a state as well as candidates seeking an instructional leader license have been provided with preparation that delivers a strong foundation in evidence-based literacy instruction and that educator preparation programs provide specific and objective evidence that attest to the quality of their preparation in early literacy. To ensure an individual seeking state licensure at the elementary, early childhood, special education (K-5) level can effectively teach an evidence-based model of literacy instruction, it is important these individuals be able to demonstrate sufficient knowledge in the science of reading prior to receiving licensure. |
