ALP 3600 - Exceptional Learners in the Classroom



Credits: 3

Prerequisite(s): Course participants must hold a baccalaureate degree from a regionally accredited institution and have been hired by a Metro-area school or school district to teach in an area for which the candidate can meet grade level and content licensure requirements under the Alternative Licensure legislation, SB 09-160.

Description: ALP 3600 was designed to introduce students to exceptionality in the classroom from an educational decision-making perspective. Information regarding disabilities and giftedness is presented in a manner to familiarize students with the many instructional decisions they must be prepared to make on the basis of the diversity of the classroom population. The case study method is the approach that will be used in this course. Students will be expected to apply course content to solve various problems that are presented within the context of case studies. These case studies will be specific to the student’s level of teacher licensure and will provide exposure to relevant issues pertaining to early childhood, elementary, or secondary education.
