IL 1360 - TRANSITION & COLLABORATION: EDUCATION, PLANNING, AND SERVICESMinimum Credits: 3 Maximum Credits: 3 This course involves the study of evidence-based research on student outcomes and effective transition practices from early childhood, elementary, and middle school transition with a focus on postsecondary transition practices. In special education, transitions are those times when a student moves from one setting to another (e.g., elementary to middle school or graduating from high school to whatever is next for that individual). Understandably, transition plans include a wide variety of stakeholders: not only the student and their parents, but other teachers, therapists (speech, physical, cognitive), administrators. This course focuses on understanding how to best assist students with special needs in this process and how to collaborate within the educational system and the larger community. Topics include transition-related legislation in the fields of special and vocational education, rehabilitation, labor, and civil rights legislation, transition practice and planning that develop self-determination and self-advocacy competencies in students with disabilities.
