EDSP 4347 - Teaching Reading/Language Arts to Students with Special Needs

3 hrs

Today’s teachers need to be skilled and avid connoisseurs of evidence-based practices in the classroom. This class will explore current, comprehensive, practical approaches for teaching students with mild to moderate disabilities. Students will learn how to consistently assess, plan, organize, implement, and evaluate instruction based on knowledge of the learner, intended learner outcomes, and the curriculum. Diversity and assessment are thoroughly integrated throughout the comprehensive coverage of both traditional and contemporary approaches to teaching. Considerable attention is given to classroom integration of both educational and assistive technologies. Prerequisite(s): EDSP 2304
