Description

Current research and practice regarding the needs of students with physical/health and communication disabilities, including visual and hearing deficits, are examined in this course. Methods for including these students in the regular classroom and examination of the range of differences and similarities of this student group provide content for the course, including the development of IFSPs, IEPs, and ITPs. Students develop lesson plans that either specify adaptations to existing curriculum or special curriculum needs, such as life skills. This course includes sensory aspects of disability across the lifespan. Prerequisite: GRELE 530 (Can take concurrently with GRSPD 525 only with special permission)
