    2014-15 Study of Mississippi Teacher Preparation for Early Literacy Instruction A Project of The Barksdale Reading Institute (BRI) and The Institutions of Higher Learning (IHL) STATEWIDE REPORT December 2015 For public release 31 March 2016 Copies available for download at www.msreads.org 2014-15 Study of Mississippi Teacher Preparation for Early Literacy Instruction STATEWIDE REPORT “Evidence-based” refers to practices that have been shown to be successful in improving reading achievement. The success of these practices is demonstrated in two ways: by research-study data collected according to rigorous design, and by consensus among expert practitioners who monitor outcomes as part of their practice. These results—whether scientific data or expert consensus—must be valid and reliable and come from a variety of sources. Reading Excellence Act, 1999 Research in reading should follow the norms of science. Each researcher must try to learn from the work of those who preceded him and to add to a unified body of knowledge—knowing that neither he nor anyone following him will ever have the final word. Jeanne Chall, Learning to Read: The Great Debate, 1967 2014-15 Study of Mississippi Teacher Preparation for Early Literacy Instruction STATEWIDE REPORT ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This document was made possible because of the vision and expertise of a dedicated team committed to improving literacy for all children in Mississippi.

Your willingness to participate and your spirit of transparency have enabled a thorough examination of how we are preparing teachers to teach reading in Mississippi.

Abstract “We’re Still Here!”: The Rhetorical Education of the Prince Edward County Free School Association, 1963-1964, was directed by Lois Agnew. In 1954, the Prince Edward County Board of Supervisors voted to withhold funding to public schools in reaction to the Brown vs. Board of Education ruling. Public schools remained closed for five years in this county. The White community created and sustained a private segregation academy. The Black community worked to provide a variety of programs to keep students engaged. In 1963, the Kennedy Administration took note of the Black community’s plight. Black community leaders and members of the Kennedy Administration worked to establish the Free School Association, a one-year temporary solution to the school closure crisis. The Free School made plain its intention to provide students with the skills they believed necessary for becoming active citizens despite the obstructions placed upon them by the White community.

E-mail: [email protected] There is debate on the use of authenticity in language classrooms in terms of language, task, and situation. “Authenticity of language” spans a continuum that begins with inauthentic materials – wholly created by a teacher or materials developer – to constructed materials, modified from real-world materials, to those materials created for non-pedagogical L1 purposes. “Authenticity of task” questions whether students are engaging with language materials in a way that would appear natural outside the classroom. “Authenticity of situation” refers to non-classroom contexts. Complicating ideas of authenticity is the question of materials selection. This paper explores teachers’ awareness of authenticity and suggests ways to incorporate authentic language, tasks, and situations to enhance classroom learning. Keywords: Authenticity, curriculum development, English for academic purposes, teacher education Authenticity is a relatively new concept in language Rogers & Medley (1988) seem aware of this pitfall teaching and learning first surfacing as a concern and suggest that the criteria should include the quality, in the 1970s. It is also a slippery concept that has appropriateness and naturalness of the language curiously defied definition despite repeated attempts.
