ED 403 - Inclusive Classrooms

3 Credit(s)

Participants in ED 403 are introduced to the philosophical and legal definitions, concepts, and strategies of inclusive education. This course employs best practices for providing content access for students with diverse abilities who have cultural, language, and/or communication needs that may differ from those in general education settings. In order to meet diverse needs, participants learn to understand their students from multiple perspectives. Therefore, working as a member of a team and seeking help from others are strategies participants will learn, to facilitate inclusion of students with special needs in the general education classroom. Collaborating with families, general and special educators, paraprofessionals, and related service providers in the school and community to create a multidisciplinary team approach to inclusion, is also a key concept of this course. This course includes Stage 3 Fieldwork.
