This 3-credit course addresses the development, implementation, and monitoring of individualized management, instructional, curricular, and environmental strategies, and adaptations for students with special needs. Emphasis is placed on a needs-based model incorporating the cognitive, language, attentional, affective, physical, and sensory needs of lower incidence populations (multiple disabilities, hearing/vision impairments, orthopedic and health conditions) and pervasive development disorders/autism within a variety of settings. A field experience component facilitates direct interaction with learners with special needs, supplemented by cooperative discussions of experiential applications to course content. EDSP 502
