Teacher candidates will learn to select and develop age appropriate, formal, and informal assessment strategies and instruments to collect student information.

Teacher candidates will also focus on the skills required to develop lessons and units for general education settings (K-12) based on the principles of Universal Design for Learning (UDL). Transitions from pre-school special education programming to kindergarten, as well as transitions from high school to postsecondary education, employment, and independent community living are highlighted in this course.
