    Program Description

    This program will extend your specialized professional abilities to maximize learning for students with mild, moderate and severe disabilities in pre-kindergarten through grade 12 general education classrooms. Courses and integrated experiences will increase your understanding and utilization of research based practices in literacy, specialized instruction, assessment, data-based decision making, collaboration, positive behavior interventions, and assistive technology for a wide range of learners.

    Prior to completing the final semester, candidates must have 6 credits of college coursework in each of the following: English Language Arts, mathematics, social studies, and science.

    Note: This is a masters program for individuals who hold an initial Students with Disabilities teaching certificate.

    Enter the description for this program as it should appear in the catalog. (Please submit the curriculum/course listing as a file attachment. This section is for a description of the program for the college catalog).
  • Justification for Proposal*

    The proposed changes are based on the new requirements outlined by NYSED for programs leading to a recommendation for initial teaching certification for students with disabilities – all grades. 

  • Follow these steps to propose courses to the new program curriculum:

    Step 1

    There are two options for adding courses: "Add Course" and "Import Course." 

    For courses already in the catalog, click on "Import Course" and find the courses needed. 

    For new classes going through a Curriculog Approval Process click on "Add Course"-- a box will open asking you for the Prefix, Course Number and Course Title.

    Step 2

    Click on "View Curriculum Schema" then select “Add Core”. When the New Core appears, expand the Core and enter the Core Title. Next, click on “Add Courses” to access the list of courses from step 1. Then select the courses you wish to add.
