Methods of Teaching Students with Special Needs

Starting February 2, 2011 I will be taking a graduate level course at Notre Dame. The class is called Methods of Teaching Students with Special Needs and it looks rather interesting. I need to keep up my teacher certification (I have to take 2 classes every 5 years) and I hope to share with you interesting facts that I learn.


Description: Provides the student with methods to facilitate the teaching of students with significant learning and behavioral differences. The course content addresses cognitive processing, classroom management and behavioral support strategies. Models of instructional delivery, adaptation of instructional materials, strategy instruction and means of assessing students' progress are explored. Current trends, issues, and legislation updates are included as well.



Wish me luck!
