This book focuses on secondary inclusive classrooms and the instructional strategies and content-specific techniques that ensure the learning success of all middle and secondary students. Focused on research-based strategies, this first edition text shows how to accommodate and modify instruction for secondary students with special needs. Organised in two parts, it explains the developmental differences, disabilities, and social skills deficits that can impact adolescents and then offers specific ways to improve instruction using strategies such as co-teaching, differentiated instruction, strategies instruction, and peer-assisted learning.

Book Synopsis Whatever Happened to Inclusion? by : Phil Smith

Download or read book Whatever Happened to Inclusion? written by Phil Smith. This book was released on 2010. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Law, policy, and practice in the United States has long held that students with disabilities - including those with intellectual disabilities - have the right to a free and appropriate public education, in a non-restrictive environment. Yet very few of these students are fully included in general education classrooms. Educational systems use loopholes to segregate students; universities regularly fail to train teachers to include students; and state regulators fail to provide the necessary leadership and funding to implement policies of inclusion. Whatever Happened to Inclusion? reports on the inclusion of students with intellectual disabilities from national and state perspectives, outlining the abject failure of schools to provide basic educational rights to students with significant disabilities in America. The book then describes the changes that must be made in teacher preparation programs, policy, funding, and local schools to make the inclusion of students with intellectual disabilities a reality.
