Step outside of the IEPs and behavioral paperwork currently
generated in schools, go where disabled people are thriving today,
and see the results in learning, growth, and expression. This
authoritative book offers readers alternative ways to think about
learning and behavior in special education. Through illustrative
case studies and a disability studies lens, author Erin McCloskey
uses the voices of people with disabilities to show how these
students progress creatively outside the classroom and school
building—at the dojo, the riding arena, the theater stage, the
music studio, and other community-centered spaces where disabled
students can make choices about their learning, their bodies, and
their goals. Balancing theory and practice, the book describes
alternative learning spaces, demonstrates how disabled students
learn there, and passes on the important lessons learned in each
space. The ideas apply to students of all ages with a wide variety
of disabilities. Book Features: Uses the voices of people with
disabilities to promote alternative ways to think about learning
and behavior in special education. Presents rich case studies and
briefer interludes to illustrate how disabled students are learning
and thriving in surprising ways outside of school where they have
opportunities to explore. Distills important key takeaways from
each case study through chapter sections of “lessons learned.”
Promotes informed discussion of the concepts in the book with
questions at the end of each chapter. Combines theory and practice
to help readers put the concepts into action in a variety of
settings with a variety of disabled students.
