    Description
    This course provides experience working in a school environment with children and youth who have disabilities. It is designed as a laboratory for those who have completed or are concurrently enrolled in ECE 404. The course covers skills for students who want to be general educators, special educators, school and social service providers, and/or other community workers who are essential in providing inclusive/integrated environments for children and youth with disabilities. Environmental modifications in educational, agency, and community settings are studied. Classroom modifications in curriculum, assessment, behavior management, and instructional methods are examined. When taken after or concurrently with ECE 404, it is designed to meet the Special Education requirement for clear multiple and single subject credentials in California. Students must supply their own transportation to selected elementary school placements.
