Educators who work with students with disabilities have the unique challenge of providing comprehensive and quality educational experiences for students who have a wide range of abilities and levels of focus. Pedagogies and educational strategies can be applied across a student population, though they tend to have varied success. Developing adaptive teaching methods that provide quality experiences for students with varied disabilities are necessary to promote success for as many of these students as possible. Special Education Design and Development Tools for School Rehabilitation Professionals is a comprehensive research publication that examines special education practices and provides in-depth evaluations of pedagogical practices for improved educational experiences for students with disabilities. Highlighting a range of topics such as bilingual education, psychometrics, and physical education, this book is ideal for special education teachers, instructors, rehabilitation professionals, academicians, school administrators, instructional designers, curriculum developers, principals, educational software developers, researchers, and students.

Promoting Educational Success through Culturally Situated Instruction uniquely highlights the power of educational equity, constructivism, and situated literacy. While many books discuss diversity or constructivism, and some address situated literacy, this book synthesizes all three components to produce synergy. Situatedness is the core of diversity, and the strategies and insights in each chapter equip students to reach their full potential. This text synthesizes educational equality, constructivism, and situated literacy in unique and practical ways that strategically prepare students for the next level of learning. These chapters provide insights for educational opportunities that personalize learning, take learning to the next level, and provide transformative strategies to empower students. Each chapter explores an area of education in which situatedness and a connection to the learner at a deep, personal level are components of the teaching/learning scenario.
