Course syllabus
This course program addresses the complexity of understanding and educating the people with special needs, disabilities and differing abilities.
Areas covered will include identification processes, methods for contributing to the child's healthy development and educational needs. This course will address the challenges related to creating developmentally appropriate inclusion practices in the educational settings.
Finally, the documents aimed at school integration will be explored in depth, starting from the clinical ones and their correct interpretation. Models of Individualized Educational Plans will then be presented and discussed in order to deepen their knowledge for a possible implementation, also in an ICF perspective.
