PreK-12 Reading Courses: Home/Help

What is this?

This list of resources was compiled for READING 766 CLINICAL DIAGNOSIS & LITERACY INSTRUCTION (K-12), READING 771 PLANNING AND IMPLEMENTING READING PROGRAMS, and other graduate courses in READING, but will be useful for undergraduate courses as well. These are not the only resources which can be used for completing the project, but provide a starting point for your research.

Taking Online Courses?

Are you taking classes online? You can still use library services and access library resources! Students who are enrolled in UW-Whitewater online degree programs are considered Distance Education (DE) students. Graduate students and faculty are also eligible for these services. These students are eligible for the same services as on-campus students, as well as others listed below.
