Interventions in special education are results of advocacy,
legislation, litigation, research, and trends. Since interventions
come in many forms, they represent multidimensional viewpoints and
perspectives and need to be handled with professional care,
integrity, fidelity. This book highlights the fact there are
skill-sets needed to work with divergent disability categories. The
chapters begin with introducing readers to contextual bases of
interventions for learners with disabilities and end with
futuristic perspectives that go beyond tradition. Other chapters
focus on students with learning disabilities, emotional and
behavioral disorders, and intellectual disabilities. Additional
chapters focus on students who are deaf and hard of hearing, and
students with visual impairments, autism, severe disabilities,
traumatic brain injury, speech and language impairments, and
physical and other health impairments. This volume presents the
voices of leaders in the field of special education and addresses
critical issues related to identification, assessment, labeling,
placement, and instruction. Furthermore, it responds to what makes
special education "special." Not only does this volume present
historical contexts, it also authenticates the legitimacy of
helping all learners to maximize their fullest potential, the real
essence of special education. To a large extent, this book will be
an excellent resource for undergraduate and graduate students,
regular educators, special educators, educator preparation
professionals, researchers, scholars, and practitioners.
