DSAB 224 - Inclusion: Principles in Practice (3 Credits)

Prerequisite: None
A growing number of students with autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) who were previously placed in segregated school settings are being educated in general education classrooms. Effectively educating students with ASD requires an understanding of their unique social, communicative and behavioral challenges.
