This course deals with the special needs student population from physical disabilities, learning disabilities, intellectual disabilities, sensory impairment, to the gifted child. The student will learn about interpreting diagnostic instruments and writing educational programs to meet the needs of the child. Students will study current practices, issues, and trends in special education law and policy, including adapting the environment and strategies for developing strong relationships with families and other community agencies. There is a significant outside of class time service-learning component to this class. Any field experience requires proof of personal liability coverage and a criminal background check. F, S. (T)
