Per WGU's published description, D758 is designed to introduce special education teachers to a repertoire of evidence-based instructional strategies to advance the learning of students with exceptionalities. Its focus is specific: strategies for intensifying and individualizing instructional interventions, making instructional decisions based on progress-monitoring data, collaborating with general education teachers and paraprofessionals, teaching to mastery, promoting generalization of learning, and teaching students with exceptionalities how to use self-assessment, problem solving, and other cognitive strategies to organize critical content and meet their needs. Read as one sentence, that is the daily judgment work of a special education teacher compressed into a single course.
Placement splits by table family. On the B.A. Special Education and Elementary Education dual licensure track and the B.A. Special Education (Mild to Moderate), D758 sits at term 9 beside D759 and D760, the literacy and mathematics strategies pair, one term after D757 closes the curriculum survey. On both B.A. Educational Studies variants it runs one term earlier, at term 8, sharing the term with D757. Two honest notes. The M.A. Teaching, Special Education carries a same-named graduate twin, D766 (EDUC 6061, 2 CUs) at term 6; the codes and credit counts differ, so match the code in your portal. And on the licensure tables the live pieces, early clinical, advanced clinical, and student teaching, always stay with you.
