Study Notes
Misconceptions and Understandings
- Inclusion in education is more effective than special education classes, contrary to some misconceptions.
- Professionals have varying opinions on the use and extent of technology in education.
- Inclusion of students with disabilities in standardized testing is essential for equitable assessment.
- There is debate regarding early intervention strategies for children with disabilities, either child-directed or teacher-directed.
Prereferral Teams Functions
- Prereferral teams reduce special education referrals by addressing academic and behavioral issues.
- They establish "ownership" by general educators for students with disabilities.
- They do not develop Individualized Education Programs (IEPs) for all students needing them.
Response to Intervention (RTI) Model
- RTI is a prereferral model for assessing specific learning disabilities.
- Assumes general education instruction is high-quality and evidence-based.
- Teacher reports contribute to understanding student performance and necessary interventions.
RTI Application
- RTI applies to both academic and social behavior learning.
- It is not limited to students with learning disabilities and differs from prereferral teams.
Effectiveness of Prereferral Teams and RTI
- Research indicates limited evidence on the effectiveness of prereferral teams and RTI.
- Mainstreamed students have shown improved academic achievement due in part to these strategies.
Progress Monitoring Assessments
- Frequent assessments, known as progress monitoring assessments, track whether students are learning as expected.
- They provide real-time feedback to educators about student learning progress.
Individualized Program Requirement
- Schools must create a written educational program for each student requiring special education services.
- Individualized programs do not need to be delivered only by a certified special education teacher.
Components of an IEP
- An Individualized Education Program (IEP) must include annual goals, related services, and instructional objectives.
- It does not require the inclusion of a student's IQ score.
Legal Sequence of IEP Development
- The correct legal sequence in IEP planning is evaluation, followed by development of the IEP, and then placement.
Individual Family Service Plan (IFSP)
- An IFSP is specifically designed for preschool children with disabilities, functioning similarly to an IEP but focusing on family involvement and support.
