According to Dr. Unrau's research, describe the possible impact of reading tutorials on credential candidates

Question

What will be an ideal response?

Answer 1

Answers should include some of the following:
1) After taking a course in content literacy, beginning teachers rarely reported no inclination to develop the reading and/or writing ability of their students.
2) Among the most frequently used strategies in tutorials run by teaching candidates are DR-TA, reciprocal teaching, Vocabulary Self-Collection Strategy, K-W-L, and quickwrites. Among those strategies least used were DEJs, DIAs, and PreP, and other strategies that require substantial teacher preparation time because texts being taught must be read and materials prepared in advance.
3) Candidates gain confidence by applying strategies in their tutorials.
4) Candidates gain an understanding of how they could use reading and/or writing strategies in their classes.
5) The tutorial gave candidates a chance to learn something important about themselves as teachers.
