Course content
The course enables students to understand, analyze and deal with complex interactions in school related to children and young people with learning challenges, and how this has an impact on their learning situation.
The course focuses in particular on children and young people who are challenged in reading, writing and calculation, social and emotional challenges and various developmental disorders and physical limitations.
The course emphasizes knowledge related to exclusion and inclusion mechanisms for these groups of students and how to develop the school as a democratic social institution.
Special needs education concepts, early preventive efforts and health promotion, values and legal and ethical issues are also included. In particular, there will be critical reflection related to various dilemmas that come with categorization and diagnosis with the student's best interests in mind, as well as participation as part of the special needs education chain of measures.
