This course focuses on the teaching of students with special needs in inclusionary settings in the school community. Class discussions will centre on issues surrounding inclusion and its implications for teaching adaptations in the classroom and school community. Students will gain an understanding of classroom-based approaches to assessment and instruction that recognize the uniqueness of each student and of the methods and strategies which successfully integrate special populations (including, but not limited to learning disabled, physically challenged, sensory impaired and behavior disordered).
