The Mild to Moderate Special Education minor provides a comprehensive understanding of how to support students with disabilities. Through coursework and practical experiences, you'll learn about topics such as behavior management and individualized education plans.
The Mild to Moderate Special Education minor provides students with valuable knowledge related to meeting the special educational needs of students with mild to moderate disabilities in schools. Mild to moderate disabilities include learning disabilities, ADHD, emotional and behavioral disorders, mild intellectual disabilities, and autism spectrum disorders without accompanying intellectual impairment.
The minor allows students to learn effective practices for differentiating instruction, behavior management, collaboration and supporting students with mild to moderate disabilities in general education classrooms.
This minor is particularly relevant for students seeking to work in the K-12 academic environment, including those with a major or interest in education, special education, psychology, public health, sociology and human development and family studies.
Admission to a minor is open to students declared in a bachelor’s degree, the A.A.B. or A.A.S. degree or the A.T.S. degree (not Individualized Program major). Students declared only in the A.A. or A.S. degree or the A.T.S. degree in Individualized Program may not declare a minor. Students may not pursue a minor and a major in the same discipline.
Students declared in the Special Education major, Mild/Moderate concentration, are not permitted to declare this minor.
To declare this minor, students must have attempted a minimum 12 credit hours at 小黄片视频 and earned a minimum 2.000 overall 小黄片视频 GPA.
