How can a deep engagement with disability studies change our
understanding of sociology, literary studies, gender studies,
aesthetics, bioethics, social work, law, education, or history?
Interdisciplinary Approaches to Disability (the companion volume to
Manifestos for the Future of Critical Disability Studies)
identifies both the practical and theoretical implications of such
an interdisciplinary dialogue and challenges people in disability
studies as well as other disciplinary fields to critically reflect
on their professional praxis in terms of theory, practice, and
methods. Topics covered include interdisciplinary outlooks ranging
from media studies, games studies, education, performance, history
and curation through to theology and immunology. Perspectives are
drawn from different regions from the European Union to the Global
South with chapters that draw on a range of different national
backgrounds. Our contributors who write as either disabled people
or allies do not proceed from a singular approach to disability,
often reflecting different or even opposing positions. The
collection features contributions from both established and new
voices in international disability studies outlining their own
visions for the future of the field. Interdisciplinary Approaches
to Disability will be of interest to all scholars and students
working within the fields of disability studies, cultural studies,
sociology, law history and education. The concerns raised here are
further in Manifestos for the Future of Critical Disability
Studies.
This collection identifies the key tensions and conflicts being
debated within the field of critical disability studies and
provides both an outline of the field in its current form and
offers manifestos for its future direction. Traversing a number of
disciplines from science and technology studies to maternal
studies, the collection offers a transdisciplinary vision for the
future of critical disability studies. Some common thematic
concerns emerge across the book such as digital futures, the
usefulness of anger, creativity, family as disability allies,
intersectionality, ethics, eugenics, accessibility and
interdisciplinarity. However, the contributors who write as either
disabled people or allies do not proceed from a singular approach
to disability, often reflecting different or even opposing
positions on these issues. Containing contributions from
established and new voices in disability studies outlining their
own manifesto for the future of the field, this book will be of
interest to all scholars and students working within the fields of
disability studies, cultural studies, sociology, law, history and
education. The concerns introduced here are further explored in its
sister volume Interdisciplinary approaches to disability: looking
towards the future.

A charming story about a teacher and her crew of preschoolers
imagining and practicing classroom expectations. It's one of those
days in Ms. Mya's classroom, when things just aren't clicking:
Jamilla is jumping. Ruth is running. And Reese is roaring like a
great big lion for no reason at all. But Ms. Mya knows what to do.
She gathers up the children, and together they begin a conversation
about expectations. When adults guide children in a positive,
proactive way by supplying clear expectations of what to do, when
to do it, and how to behave, children learn to focus, direct their
attention, manage their emotions, and regulate their behavior. A
charming story coupled with engaging illustrations, When You Just
Have to Roar! helps children and the adults who care for them make
every day its best. The book contains a page of information to help
parents, caregivers, and educators reinforce these important
concepts and support children's development of emotional control
and self-regulation.
