EDUC 388 - Inclusion and Instruction

(3.00)

This course is designed to introduce students to strategies for differentiating instruction within general education classrooms. The course examines the legal, philosophical and programmatic underpinnings of instructional inclusion, broadly defined. Addressed in the course are approaches for adapting the curriculum - especially in the areas of reading, writing and math - to meet the needs of socio-culturally, linguistically, cognitively (e.g., dyslexic, dyscalculic) and behaviorally diverse student populations, including students identified traditionally as having special needs (e.g., gifted and talented, physically challenged).
