Students in the course will become familiar with the broad range of exceptionalities from giftedness to intellectual disabilities. While the main focus will be education of the exceptional person, emphasis will also be placed upon social and legal considerations. The course is recommended for those who are interested in regular classroom teaching as well as special education and school psychology or social work. A twenty- hour field experience working with children who have special needs is required (transportation is the responsibility of each student).
