Required field experience: 10 hours Students will review the federal categories for students with disabilities and the special education process. However, the emphasis will be on how students with special needs can access the general education curriculum while being included in the general education classroom. Ideas of how to build in modifications and accommodations into a differentiated-instruction-whole-classroom approach will be shared. Methods of instruction, planning, and environment will be the focus. Transition strategies for student success will also be highlighted. Prerequisites: ECE 240 and SOE 290.
