Abstract

This chapter informs readers of a collaborative five-year grant, project activity based communication (ABC), between the College of Education, Department of Special Education and the College of Communications, Department of Communication Sciences and Disorders. The purpose of this collaboration was to respond to the call for delivering high-quality preservice training to early childhood special educators and speech-language pathology candidates. A collaborative and cross-disciplinary approach was taken in the design of the instructional framework, the delivery of coursework, and the selection of professional development opportunities. The instructional framework is meant to prepare and educate pre-professionals on how to collaborate successfully while applying best practices of universal design for learning that support all preschoolers, with and without high-intensity needs in an inclusive preschool environment. This work is funded through a 325K personnel preparation development grant by the US Department of Education in the Office of Special Education Programs (OSEP).
