Integrated Content Literacy is a practical text for improving learning in the content areas and is based on current theory. Includes chapters on assessment of text, reading rate adaptability, and vocabulary development. Explicit references to state, national, and international standards are presented as they apply to the concepts and methods in each chapter. Six unique chapter sections entitled "From the Pages of our Lives" written by various educators, demonstrate personal commitment and love of learning, which adds meaningful context and perspective to the concepts and methods in this book. The teaching strategies in each chapter are modeled with cognitive maps, embedded workshops and vignettes from content classrooms. A glossary and extensive references help readers organize and understand the materials. Includes information on religion in the public school curriculum. Each chapter is complete in itself, making it useful in staff development workshops. Integrated Content Literacy has several features that make it unique from other texts: The tool box of literacy and learning strategies situates the reader as the learner. Each chapter includes a sampling of specific measurable literacy standards established by individual states. "Study Learning" is the authors' own model of interactive study skills that moves in a sequence through all aspects of this important content strategy.
