Across the country, varying state regulations and practices call into question the manner with which students with disabilities are taught, served, and prepared for the future in an economically and socially challenging community and environment. Their rights are governed by the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, the Americans with Disabilities Act, and the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act. Course participants will learn how students with disabilities are ensured their rights to access and a free appropriate public education as well as how this translates into post-secondary education, employment, and society. Students will be evaluated on synthesis of information in written format and in visual presentation and on in-class mutli-modal engagement. Students will also be expected to complete an independent research project evaluating the manner in which disability rights are ensured within the very community and environment in which we live.

Prerequisites:
