3 Units
This course will involve an in-depth examination of California and federal laws which affect the lives and education of individuals who have disabilities and discuss the ethics involved in providing services to this population. Special education law for children from birth to age 22 will be covered. Although there are no official state or national standards for special education, the Council for Exceptional Children (cec.sped.org) is regarded as the national representative of special education expectations. CEC ethical standards and best practices will be used as a core to special education expectations.
