In the event that the health authorities announce a new period of confinement due to the evolution of the health crisis caused by COVID-19, the teaching staff will promptly communicate how this may effect the teaching methodologies and activities as well as the assessment.
The education system focuses on attention to diversity as a model of education in schools. This creates the need to know in depth the different diseases and disorders that interfere with the learning process. Students with intellectual disabilities from different causes have cognitive functioning, personal, social, emotional and determined that imply specific needs in their learning process.
To understand the concept and the current definition of intellectual disability and assessment of educational needs, help us to understand the educational inclusion of these students.
Throughout this course we will explore the various disorders that define different profiles of learning, their characteristics, and work in each of the areas and their adaptation to the school environment.
