This course will explore the selection and differentiation of curriculum and instruction from the perspective of students in secondary inclusive classrooms. The extraordinary needs of adolescent students identified as disabled, gifted and talented, and culturally and linguistically diverse will be the focus. Through class discussions and course assignments, participants will acquire an understanding of the dynamics of differentiated instruction, design classrooms that facilitate differentiated instruction and plan, employ and assess differentiated lessons in inclusive secondary subject area classes. Fieldwork in inclusive settings is required.
