View Academic Calendar
This course examines behavior management practices within general and special education classrooms. Cases focus on behavior management strategies for special learners with a range of disabilities from learning disabilities to emotional behavioral disorder (EBD) to autism. Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) regulations, state and district policies, and ethical principles regarding behavior management practices will be introduced. The cases in this course depict problems and opportunities related to classroom management, individual behavior management strategies and systems, functional behavioral assessments, developmentally appropriate behavior management goals, and zero tolerance policies. Course participants will develop instructional and leadership skills needed for teaching students with special learning needs, as well as students at-risk for academic and social failure.
