EDU 5279 Curriculum Content, Practices and Environmental Issues for Teaching Childhood Students with Disabilities
This course of study is designed to introduce reading writing and mathematics methods and programs for children with disabilities. Instruction will focus on using test data and student observation to determine the best method of teaching these subjects. This course will foster an understanding of the way in which methodology, materials and practices must be coordinated to meet the specific needs and address the deficits of each student. Particular attention will be given to basal and developmental programs and meeting New York State Learning Standards and all New York State Learning Standards. Commonly used diagnostic instruments and state assessments will be reviewed. Clinical methods of teaching reading and writing to students who cannot benefit from the basal programs will be surveyed. Developing and implementing state mandated academic intervention services (AIS) will be presented.
