LITERACY STUDIES DEGREE DISCUSSED ON “MTSU ON THE RECORD”
Comprehensive Approach to Improving Reading Skills and Teaching How to Read
(MURFREESBORO) – Dr. Diane Sawyer, director of the MTSU Chair of Excellence in Dyslexic Studies, will talk about the university’s Ph.D. program in Literacy Studies on the next edition of “MTSU on the Record” at 7 a.m. this Sunday, Nov. 30, on WMOT-FM (89.5 and wmot.org). The interdisciplinary doctorate for educators with graduate degrees and at least three years of field experience is of interest to speech-language pathologists, school psychologists, reading teachers, classroom teachers and school administrators. The course of study brings into focus both socio-cultural impacts on literacy and the impact of neurobiology and neuropsychology.
