EDUC 611 - Evidence-based Instructional Strategies3 credits
The application of Universal Design for Learning (UDL) and differentiated instruction to facilitate positive student learning outcomes in both skill development and the content areas is the focus of this course. The goal of this course is to identify evidence-based instructional strategies that promote literacy and learning across the curriculum for students with disabilities. Teacher Candidates will learn specific strategies for teaching academic skills to students who differ in experiences, readiness to learn, interests, intelligence, languages, cultures, gender, and mode of learning. Content area instruction will focus on the strategies instruction model (SIM) which incorporates varied approaches for teaching students who struggle to read, write, and organize themselves. Instructional planning for diverse learners that includes UDL, differentiated instruction, evidence-based instructional strategies, tiered and leveled practice and products, cross-standards based instruction, and technology will be addressed. Emphasis will be placed on supporting students with exceptional learning needs in inclusive classrooms although research-based best practice in instruction for students with moderate and severe disabilities such as functional academics, personal care, recreation/leisure, and vocational and community living skills will also be covered.
