EDU 430 Special Needs Seminar

This course has been designed to facilitate a practical application of the pre-service student's ability to: recognize type, identification and characteristics of various disabilities, as well as effective, evidenced-based instructional practices and adaptations for students with special needs; understand legal rights and responsibilities of the teacher related to a special education referral and evaluation, and the rights and procedural safeguards that students are guaranteed; and identify possible causes and implications of overrepresentations of minorities in special education to avoid misinterpretation of behaviors that represent cultural, linguistic difference as indicative of learning problems.
