Exceptional education, also known as special education, is often
grounded within exclusive and deficit mindsets and practices.
Research has shown perpetual challenges with disproportionate
identification of culturally and linguistically diverse students,
especially Black and Indigenous students. Research has also shown
perpetual use of inappropriate placement in more restrictive
learning environments for marginalized students, often starting in
Pre-K. Exceptional education practitioners often engage in
practices that place disability before ability in instruction,
behavior management, identification and use of related services,
and educational setting placement decisions. These practices, among
others, have resulted in a crippled system that situates students
with exceptionalities in perceptions of deviance, ineptitude, and
perpetuate systemic oppression. The Handbook of Research on
Challenging Deficit Thinking for Exceptional Education Improvement
unites current theory and practices to communicate the next steps
to end the current harmful practices and experiences of exceptional
students through critical analysis of current practices, mindsets,
and policies. With the information this book provides,
practitioners have the power to implement direct and explicit
actions across levels to end the harm and liberate our most
vulnerable populations. Covering topics such as accelerated
learning, educator preparation programs, and intersectional
perspectives, this book is a dynamic resource for teachers in
exceptional education, general teachers, social workers,
psychologists, educational leaders, organizational leaders, the
criminal justice system, law enforcement agencies, government
agencies, policymakers, curriculum designers, testing companies,
current educational practitioners, administrators, post-grad
students, professors, researchers, and academicians.
