- Abstract: In this course students are introduced to a wide range of methods and strategies for meeting the needs of children with behavioural and adjustment problems in regular preschool, primary and secondary classrooms. The course explores research on teaching and defines what is currently known about how to effectively teach children with special needs with a particular emphasis on maintaining student attention and on-task behaviour. First, basic classroom teaching and management skills and procedures are covered. Secondly, more comprehensive methods and strategies known to impact positively on children with special needs are introduced. The current focus is on cooperative learning strategies and peer tutoring. The major proportion of the course will be devoted to behavioural management strategies, including the Kounin model, behaviour modification, assertive discipline, reality therapy, logical consequences, and social skills training.
