The MEd in Differentiated Instruction with a Reading Specialist Concentration emphasizes strategies for enhancing literacy education, assisting struggling readers, guiding reading instructors' professional growth, and addressing students' literacy difficulties. Participants must undertake a continuous internship throughout the program, which can be fulfilled at their workplace, though they need to consult with their faculty advisor in the initial semester to organize this experience. Graduates earn a Class A Reading Specialist Certification (P-12).
