The book is straightforward and practical, with many support resources. It should work well for undergraduates.
It provides the breadth and depth required for this course without feeling like a textbook. I really like the Professional Development Guide for the book; however, I can't find the PowerPoint slides.
This book is up to date with the current research and thinking about literacy in content areas )"disciplinary literacy") other than English / language arts. It is succinct, unpretentious, reader friendly, and teachers will likely relate to the content more so than the content reading texts we have used in the past. The text includes multiple examples of how literacy is related to and used by professionals in each of the disciplines.
Affordable and comprehensive. Will work well with our secondary students as the ideas address some of the comments they have up front, such "but I don't teach reading." And it address each disciplinary area in detail.
I feel it covers all that needs to be addressed to prepare my students to be great science teachers.
