SPE 501
From a set of multiple data points, students author a psychoeducational report that synthesizes assessment results, addresses issues of eligibility for special education, and provides learning goals and objectives, accommodations, and supports. Candidates conduct an interview with either a person with a disability, family member, friend, or professional. This assessment helps candidates understand the lived experiences of people with disabilities and their families and apply that understanding to informed educational practices and advocacy. It introduces concepts from Disability Studies, ethics, and qualitative research, encouraging candidates to analyze interview data through historical, legal, social, cultural, and ethical lenses.
