California has adopted Dyslexia Guidelines for future teachers. These must be incorporated into each basic credential program (education specialist, multiple subject, single subject). The legislature has made funding available so that teacher education programs can align their coursework with the guidelines (AB 128). Course revision and program revision to include pedagogy related to literacy and dyslexia may result from this work.
