Self-Paced Phonics: A Text for Educators is designed to provide pre-service and practicing teachers with instruction that will assist them in developing a sound understanding of both the content and pedagogy of phonics. Faculty who already face content overload will find the text teacher-friendly and immediately applicable to web-based instructional models. The text is designed to complement developmental reading methods textbooks that typically cover phonics in a superficial manner.
