Classroom Management in Special Education and Inclusive Classrooms

Examination of behavioral and psychoeducational approaches as they apply to the creation of a respectful classroom environment. Techniques that increase behaviors that lead to teaching and learning techniques that ameliorate behaviors that inhibit teaching and learning are covered in detail for populations including those with mild/moderate, severe, and multiple disabilities. Preventive techniques are emphasized for classrooms in which teachers need to accommodate students with diverse levels of functioning, as well as diverse cultural and linguistic backgrounds. Twenty hours of fieldwork in one setting help students apply the techniques reviewed during class. This course satisfies the NYC Department of Education human relations requirement.
