EDUT 5139 Inclusive Support-Students with SMI
Inclusive Support for Students with Severe and Multiple Impairments (SMI)
As an educator, you want all your students to feel like they belong in the classroom. When it comes to students with SMI, you may not have the skills and strategies to ensure they feel included in the general education setting. This course provides important tips and processes for how to include students with disabilities like Autism Spectrum Disorder, Speech/Language Impairment, Cerebral Palsy, or Deaf/Blindness. You'll learn how to create tools like visual aids, incorporate multisensory strategies, and use assistive technology. Plus, you'll get practical advice on everything from secondary transitioning to family engagement, along with information on IEPs. By the end of this course, no matter what your role, you'll feel more confident in connecting and supporting students with disabilities in your classroom.
