Popis: This chapter describes the conversion of a face-to-face reading clinic held on a university campus to one implemented fully online. Two faculty members, in different disciplines, worked collaboratively with a local elementary school principal to transition the program to the new format. Teacher candidates from several certification areas worked together in pairs to tutor a shared tutee. The transition to virtual instruction involved rethinking ways to prepare candidates to conduct assessments, plan and implement engaging instruction, and monitor progress in a virtual environment. This chapter will provide a description of this model, along with the logistical and pedagogical decisions made and the lessons learned along the way.
