Seminar in Teaching Numerical Concepts to Students with Disabilities

Catalog description

This course focuses on how to effectively assess and teach mathematics to students with learning differences. You will explore disabilities as learner variability and diversity (as opposed to deficits). Instruction and intervention are not a means of "fixing" students; rather, we utilize instruction to create experiences that provide access and support for students to advance their knowledge of mathematics. We will experience, design, and facilitate tasks, high leverage routines, and intervention that support the development of a robust mathematics.
