Prospective teachers and others interested in Young Adult Literature (YAL) are introduced to the wide range of sub-genres in the rapidly expanding field of Young Adult Literature. In addition to readings in YAL literature and theory, methods for using YAL in the classroom are also emphasized. Students gain experience with current YAL reference tools and other YAL teaching materials. Although the course is required for prospective secondary English teachers in their junior or senior year, education majors from any discipline or level are welcome to enroll in the course.
