As future educators we have to realize that we may have children with exceptionalities. Having students with exceptionalities can be life changing, and a learning experience. It can also be quite difficult. That is why it is so important to understand the difference between different exceptionalities and disabilities. As a PROFICIENT educator you must accomadate the needs for all of your students to enable them to learn.
As someone who knows first hand how exceptionalities and disabilities affect an environment I think as an educator I will be able to recognize and understand how to deal with certain issues in my classroom. Having an older cousin who has Autism and another who had down syndrome I understand quite well how it can affect a family which is quite important in the classroom as well. What happens at home for a student can affect how they behave in a classroom. All this aspects play a big role in how I will deal with these issues in my classroom and make the environment a place of learning and love.
Specifically, this course is designed to examine 1) the nature and function of culture; 2) the development of individual and group cultural identity; 3) definitions and implications of diversity, and 4) the influences of culture on learning, development, and pedagogy.
