SPED101: Creating Effective Learning Environments for Students with Special Needs

This unit explores the nature of disability and other special learning needs. Broadly based on a non-categorical model, the emphasis will be on what research has determined to be the most effective modes of instruction for students with special needs. Effective inclusion of such students into the least restrictive environment will be a primary consideration. The unit is available to all students and will be particularly relevant to those studying psychology, linguistics and the humanities as well as education.
