EDUC 308 Teaching Exceptional Learners
This course prepares preservice secondary teachers to modify instruction for learners with needs outside of mainstream instructional practice. Specifically, the needs of inclusion students, gifted learners and other students with special circumstances will be addressed. Application will be integrated with the methods coursework as students interact directly with the diverse learners found in their field placement classrooms. Students will learn procedures for adapting instruction, varying assessment procedures, designing appropriate interventions, altering equipment usage and managing IEPs and para-professionals.
