Enduring Issues in Special Education is aimed at any course in the
undergraduate or graduate special education curriculum that is
wholly or partly devoted to a critical examination of current
issues in special education. The book organizes 28 chapters into
seven sections using familiar structuring principles-what, who,
where, how, when, why, and whither. Each section begins with an
introduction that provides historical, legal, and theoretical
background information and organizing commentary for the chapters
that follow. The book's objective, in addition to informing readers
about the issues, is to develop critical thinking skills in the
context of special education. Key features include the following:
Dialectic Format - Each of the 28 chapters presents compelling
reasons for addressing the issue at hand and specific ways to do
so. Because each issue is written from different perspectives and
focuses on a variety of aspects, readers are encouraged to weigh
the arguments, seek additional information, and come up with
synthesized positions of their own. Organizing Framework - The
book's seven sections have been arranged according to a scheme that
is the essence of most investigative reporting and provides a
coherent, easy-to-understand framework for readers. Expertise - All
chapters are written by leading scholars who are highly regarded
experts in their fields and conclude with suggested readings and
discussion questions for additional study.
