None.

1.206. Expected outcomes for the course Recognise and differentiate various categories of pupils with special needs. Compare features of psychological functioning at various groups and recognise the specific problems pupils with special needs are faced with. Differentiate pupils according to the courses of learning difficulties, and knowing the specifics of work with gifted pupils. Create individualised educational problems. Know the forms of collaboration with parents through which they can indirectly encourage the learning of the pupil with learning difficulties.

1.207. Course content The concept of individuals with special needs, classification, prevalence. Attitudes towards people with special needs, the process of stigmatisation and their effects on the psychological functioning of an individual with special needs. Problems within the family. Network of social care with individuals with special needs. Sensor damages. Physical damages. Speaking and language disorders. Learning difficulties. Insufficient mental development. Behavioural and emotional difficulties. Specifics of teaching pupils with difficulties. Gifted children. Teaching gifted children. Aetiology of entity, diagnostics and prediction. Visiting various institutions as well as lectures by experts from the practice is scheduled.
