In The Fundamentals of Special Education, authors Bob Algozzine and Jim Ysseldyke highlight the major concepts in special education, providing readers with a better understanding of the field, from disability categories and statistics to appropriate learning environments.
Including a pretest, posttest, and key vocabulary terms, this practical guide answers the many questions educators have about special education, including:
- What is "special education" exactly, and why do we have it?
- How many students receive special education services and who are they?
- How are students identified for special education services?
- Where are students with disabilities taught?
- What is an Individualized Education Plan (IEP)?
- What roles do general and special education teachers play in addressing the needs of students with disabilities, and how do their responsibilities overlap?
- How does diversity influence special education?
- What about students who are gifted and/or talented?
