Gain skills for recognizing and addressing reading and writing difficulties – from diagnosis, to designing effective student support.

 

  1. Pedagogical diagnostics at the first level of primary school – content and scope, pedagogical diagnostics of pre-literacy.
  2. Pedagogical diagnostics in relation to the training of reading techniques.
  3. Pedagogical diagnostics in relation to phonemic reading, semantic reading, and reading comprehension.
  4. Specific difficulties in training letters and their causes; remedial procedures.
  5. Specific difficulties in training open and closed syllables and their causes; help and remedial procedures.
  6. Specific difficulties in training diphthongs, soft groups of sounds, consonant clusters; possible causes, remedial procedures.
  7. Specific difficulties in training reading words and sentences; causal connections; remedial procedures.
  8. Difficulties and help in training syllabic and non-syllabic prepositions; causal connections.
  9. Pedagogical diagnostics in relation to training writing techniques.
  10. Gross and fine motor skills in relation to the writing process.
  11. Graphomotor and visuomotor skills in relation to the writing process.
  12. Auditory and visual perception in relation to the writing process.
  13. Pedagogical diagnostics of specific difficulties in students’ written expression; causal connections, help, correction.

THE AIM OF THE SUBJECT:

To teach about the content and scope of pedagogical diagnostics at the 1st level of primary school when practicing reading and writing. To present specific difficulties of pupils when practicing reading techniques, together with proven diagnostic procedures that can identify the cause of the difficulties, especially in the areas of auditory perception, visual perception, orientation, and the level of speech development. To demonstrate specific difficulties of pupils when practicing bound writing together with proven diagnostic procedures that can identify the cause of the difficulties, especially in the areas of gross motor skills, fine motor skills, graphomotor skills, orientation, visual perception, and visuomotor skills. To teach about diagnosing the grip of writing implements, and correcting incorrect grip. To orient oneself in specific errors in written expression that are caused by immature perceptual areas; to be able to distinguish them from purely spelling errors. Diagnosis of specific errors and their correction.

STUDENT ENTRY REQUIREMENTS:

The student should master basic concepts from the phonetic-phonological level, and be familiar with the classification of Czech sounds. The student is expected to be able to explain the procedures for practicing reading techniques and writing, to use standard language in his/her speech, and to adhere to the principles of correct pronunciation.
