Study Notes
IDEA and Education Rights
- IDEA mandates free and appropriate public education (FAPE) for children with disabilities.
- Least Restrictive Environment (LRE) requires students with disabilities to be educated alongside their peers when possible.
- Full inclusion involves teaching all students, regardless of disability, in general education classrooms, with resources brought to them.
Classroom Environment and Teaching Strategies
- 61% of students with disabilities spend at least 80% of their time in general education classes.
- General education teachers aim to create a supportive community for all students to achieve academic and behavioral goals.
- Parallel teaching involves multiple teachers leading mixed-ability groups simultaneously.
- Alternative teaching is where one teacher leads while the other supports the rest of the class.
Parent Involvement and Support
- Parent intervention includes helping children who are on the autism spectrum and participating in early intervention programs.
- Parents are responsible for providing information to early intervention providers and participating in their child's educational processes.
- Key communication strategies with parents include listening actively, encouraging, and accepting their concerns.
Special Education Processes and Definitions
- IEP (Individualized Education Plan) teams typically do not include a child's siblings.
- Reevaluations of students with disabilities are conducted annually.
- The teacher is the first point of assessment for identifying a child’s need for special education.
Types of Educational Settings
- Schools offer various placements such as resource rooms, inclusive classrooms, and self-contained classes for students with disabilities.
- The term FAPE (Free and Appropriate Public Education) denotes the educational rights of students with disabilities.
Support and Intervention
- RTI (Response to Intervention) is a strategy for addressing educational needs before special education is required.
- Effective learning environments require schools to evaluate students' social, physical, and sensory capabilities.
Challenges and Considerations
- Students receiving special education services are twice as likely to be bullied compared to peers.
- Mislabeling in special education can affect student identity and access to services.
- Parental and teacher collaboration is vital for maximizing student success.
Disabilities as Defined by IDEA
- Under IDEA, recognized disabilities include Autism, Deafness, Developmental Delay, Emotional Disturbance, and more.
- Labeling can provide access to accommodations and services but may also lead to bullying and focusing on deficits instead of strengths.
Parent Perspectives
- Parents must be informed of their rights and the educational processes that impact their child.
- Engaging with parents on their child's education positively influences outcomes and supports the child's development and education.### Minority Groups and English Language Learners
- The Deaf community is a distinct group that communicates primarily through sign language and often has its own culture and identity.
- English Language Learners (ELLs) face unique challenges in education, requiring tailored approaches to enable effective learning.
Person-First Language
- Aims to emphasize the individual rather than their disability, placing their name or title before the disability (e.g., "a student with a disability" instead of "disabled student").
- Encourages respect and acknowledgment of individuals as whole persons, fostering inclusion.
Special Education Qualification
- A child's disability must adversely affect educational performance to qualify for Special Education services.
- Factors like communication and social abilities are considered, but absence of impact on educational performance disqualifies support.
Resources for Students with Disabilities
- Specialized equipment and personnel, pull-out classes for extra help, and additional time for tests are common supports provided in education.
- Different course selection is not categorized as a resource available for students with disabilities, focusing instead on tailored instructional support.
Impact of Labeling on Schools
- Labeling students with disabilities can lead to increased funding for schools, which can be directed towards special programs and resources.
- Financial support is crucial for developing effective educational strategies for students with disabilities.
Views on Labeling
- Personal views on labeling can vary; it may provide necessary resources but also risks stigmatization or a limiting identity for students.
Response to Intervention (RTI)
- RTI is a multi-tiered approach providing high-quality instruction in the general education classroom, gradually increasing instructional support as needed.
- This model allows for intervention without the immediate need for an Individualized Education Plan (IEP), promoting early support strategies.
