Students in this course are introduced to the ways in which students who have low or high incidence exceptionalities can affect their learning experiences and social relationships. Through discussion of life experiences, professional literature and the media, students gain awareness of how individuals with exceptionalities are able to adapt and excel. Students become familiar with federal mandates for inclusive practices to include differentiated instruction, universal design, augmentative and alternative communication, and assistive technology as they relate to accessibility to the general curriculum and capacity-based learning. In addition, students explore models for supporting students with exceptionalities in transition to adulthood. Prerequisites: EDUC 125, EDUC 130; concurrent enrollment in pre-professional block.
