Meeting Diverse Learning Needs in the Inclusive Classroom

Catalog description

This course is designed to help regular classroom teachers learn how to adapt, adopt, and/or create classroom instruction and materials to meet a variety of needs pertinent to P-12 inclusive classrooms. These adaptations must support curricular goals, assessment methods, and instructional strategies in such a way as to improve P-12 student learning. Since funding for new instructional materials can represent a significant challenge for teachers, effective grant writing will also be included in this course. Multicultural concerns, balanced grading and assessment, multiple intelligences, exceptional needs, and diversity issues must be considered when developing these adaptations to promote learning opportunities for all students. Not open to students with credit in EDU-593.
