As teachers we don't want our students to be illiterate (unable to read), but we also don't want them to be aliterate (able to read, but lacking interest in doing so). The earner of this badge will understand the importance of literacy and how to motivate your students to read. The earner will understand what "reading motivation" means, why it's important, what factors affect it, how to assess it, and methods of teaching to increase reading motivation in your classroom.(10 hrs)
