This unit focuses on how to create positive classroom and school environments that engage all learners, including those with disabilities. You will learn how learner behaviour, teacher behaviour, the curriculum and teaching strategies interact and can influence each other. You will explore the value of using evidence-based practices in creating engaging classroom environments for all learners. A key focus is learning some of the fundamental research based strategies that can be used in creating engaging classrooms for all learners, including those with disabilities. The need to collaborate with colleagues and parents in creating engaging classrooms for all is also discussed.
