Description
The course design assists teacher candidates in meeting the needs of the diverse learners in today’s classroom. Examples of diversity in the classroom include students identified with special education needs, students who are English Language learners, students from multicultural backgrounds, students who live in poverty, and students with other unique learning needs. Following the MultiTiered Systems of Supports (MTSS) model, teacher candidates will examine current research-based strategies with emphasis on data collection, professional collaboration, and assessment techniques to determine appropriate interventions that best meet student instructional, social, and behavior needs in the classroom setting.
