I am developing a course for undergraduate students focused on diverse learners in the STEM classroom. We are not limiting the course to only special education but that will be a considerable focus. The course is also specifically design with STEM pedagogy in mind. We are in the beginning planning phases and I'm interested in gathering outside opinions on what is missing from undergraduate education courses when it comes to diverse learners. What needs to be covered that's not being addressed for pre-service teachers? Are there any specific goals or tasks that you think would be a really valuable experience for students to have? We know that teaching STEM courses takes a different pedagogical approach than many other disciplines. When it comes to STEM and diverse learners/special education, what connections and strategies should be addressed?
Bonus points if you have any insights about technology, STEM and diverse learners.
