**__Course Description__**

==== The class will be visiting the historic perspectives of special education in an attempt to set a framework as to where special education came from, where it is now, and the future trends of special education. The trend of special education relies heavily on a dichotomy of philosophies and legal decisions. It is these two opposing components of the history of the field that drives the future of special education. No other time in the history of special education has generated the amount of change in the field then is being seen now. That change is driven through advocacy, NCLB and IDEA as well as evidence based learning. The evaluation process and the connection to the IEP using hands on approach will add to the validity of the course. ====
