Students are required to complete a 5-page case study on a student they
are working with issues related specifically to special education or mental disorders. The case study may focus
on specific problems that may affect a student’s access to education, such as self-harm, eating disorders,
Asperger’s disorder, ADHD, depression, bipolar disorder anxiety, OCD, and include classroom intervention
techniques for various disorders. The case study is expected to be well-researched, and supported by authentic
research.
