SPECIAL EDUCATION INSTRUCTORS 0 Roles of the Instructor 0 Wide Range of Disabilities 0 Majority Students Mild to Moderate Disabilities 0 Creating Supportive Learning Environments 0 Disabilities Act 0 Definition of IEP 0 75% of students spend the majority of their school day in general education classrooms (Boyer & Mainzer, 2003)
NETWORKS 0 Neural Networks 0 Recognition Networks 0 Strategic Networks 0 Affective Networks
UNIVERSAL DESIGN FOR LEARNING GAME PLAN 0 UDL suggests teachers can remove barriers to learning by providing flexibility in terms of options for materials, methods, assessments (Rose & Meyer, 2002). 0 Set Learning Goals 0 Take Action 0 Monitoring 0 Evaluating and Extending
INDIVIDUALING LEARNING 0 Using multiple media and formats 0 Providing students with choices 0 Demonstrating concepts and skills 0 Providing multiple examples 0 Providing opportunities to practice skills 0 Including varied levels activities 0 Types of Networks
ASSISTIVE TECHNOLOGIES 0 Also described in IDEA, is an Assistive Technology Service. This is defined as "...any service that directly assists an individual with a disability in the selection, acquisition, or use of an assistive technology device" (IDEA 300.6).
