Description

This volume offers practical strategies for teaching students with special needs in inclusive settings. The authors provide examples and vignettes, emphasizing teaching methods that promote student independence at all education levels. The textbook is divided into three main sections. The first section provides fundamental background knowledge of the field of special education as well as current knowledge of how students with disabilities are served within inclusive school environments. In the second section the characteristics of students with disabilities and other special needs are examined. The material in the third section of the text represents the crux of any course on inclusive practices: instructional approaches that emphasize teaching students effectively, regardless of disability or special need.
