Abstract

There is often a disconnect between what students learn in a university setting and what they will experience as in-service teachers. Literacy is commonly seen as the heart of all knowledge and is usually the core of educator preparation programs. This chapter describes several strategies and tools which education preparation programs can use to keep their literacy course content connected to current issues and instructional trends. The contents of this chapter will be rooted in relevance and engagement as well as provide ways to enhance instruction and prepare preservice educators for the future of literacy instruction.
