Explore the challenges, opportunities, and pitfalls of the
inclusion of students with disabilities in your classroom Exciting,
complex, and challenging shifts in American education are occurring
today. First, schools are moving to embrace student diversity and
accommodate the classroom experience to support diverse ways of
organizing students for learning. Second, teachers are moving away
from a traditional didactic instructional mode and embracing a
facilitator role that encourages creating innovative classroom
learning opportunities. Third, there is a shift from the view of
the school as providing educational and psychoeducational services
for students to providing educational supports for learning.
Coinciding with these changes is the growing movement in special
education that enourages full inclusion of students with special
needs. This is a far cry from the exclusionary and separatist
movements of special education less than twenty years ago. Now
American education is facing the challenging situation of working
with students with disabilities in the regular classroom.Inclusion
Practices with Special Needs Students provides a much needed
overview of the issues faced by educators committed to
understanding how to best serve children with disabilities in
schools. Inclusion Practices with Special Needs Students: Theory,
Research, and Application provides an overview of the origins,
evolution, and recent developments regarding the inclusion of
students with disabilities into general education classrooms. The
book critically challenges the overriding assumptions that support
the philosophy of inclusion with a balanced presentation or
research and theory that both supports and raises questions about
the viability of this practice. The contributors are authorities in
their respective areas of inclusionary practices.Some of the issues
you will explore in Inclusion Practices with Special Needs Students
are: political, fiscal, and legal events that have shaped inclusion
practices implications for school psychologists handling students
with serious emotional, behavioral, or developmental problems
remaining in regular education agenda for future research
priorities for research, training, and policy reform Inclusion
Practices with Special Needs Students addresses practical,
psychoeducational, philosophical, legal, ethical, and financial
issues surrounding the inclusionary initiative in special
education.
