Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using the principles of transformational leadership, IEP teams become effective tools to ensure student success and achievements.

These concepts are applied to the values and the operation of the IEP team. Teams following these principals improve service delivery by full participation of all team members. Transformational leadership can improve student advancement, school improve, and district accountability.

Book excerpt: As the inclusive classroom becomes the placement of choice for many students with disabilities, the implementation of a student’s individualized education plan (IEP) is no longer the sole responsibility of a special education teacher. Together the general education teacher and the special education teacher work to ensure each student’s progress toward meeting carefully crafted goals. Success with IEPs provides teachers with practical, research-based advice and solutions to five of the most common challenges posed by IEPs: Understanding the full scope of the teacher’s role Doing the critical prep work for IEP meetings Offering modifications and accommodations Contributing to the IEP team Monitoring student progress Author and educator Vicki Caruana explores principles that debunk some common misconceptions about how to work with students with disabilities. She offers insights, tips, and strategies that will help teachers fine-tune their practice to better meet each child’s unique needs. For teachers uncertain of their ability to meet the needs of students with IEPs, this manageable guide is a great place to start.

This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Effective, schoolwide inclustion ensures the best outcomes for all students, but how can school teams knock down the barriers to inclusion and make sure it's happening across all classrooms? This concise book gives principals and other school leaders the solution they've been waiting for: a clear framework for leading inclusion efforts, monitoring their success, and facilitating consistent use of best practices. Develped by two veteran special educaiton experts with a combined 70 years of experience, this guidebook breaks the inclusion process into concrete, manageable goals and shows how to accomplish each one by applying the authors' four-step STAR model. Using this proven, research-based model, school leaders will collaborate with all members of the education team to: implement RTI to help all students make progress toward learning standards; align students' IEPs with the general curriculum; select approprite accomodations and modifications; conduct effective screening and progress monitoring for all students; include parents as collaborative partners; prepare stuents to direct their own IEP processes; and more. To meet each of these critical goals, school temas will refer to the book's handy STAR organizer, which lays out in chart form the specific steps needed to accomplish each task. Then they'll take action with suffested inclusion strategies and helpful photocopiable forms and tools, including a sample vision statement, and IEP meeting feedback form, a survey on professional develoment priorities, and self-assessment toosl so schools can see how effectively they're implementing the STAR model.

Download or read book Exploring how the Functioning of IEP Teams Online Meets the Needs of Students with Disabilities written by Susan Louise Sharp and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Students with disabilities (SWD) are participating in supplemental online programs (SOP) and through the provisions of special education must receive specialized instruction to meet their academic potential. These students have a group of individuals, including educators, specialists, school leaders, and their own parents, collaborating to implement learning accommodations for them to support their academic success. This group is known as the Individualized Education Program Team (IEP Team). Without accommodations to the learning environment and to their learning activities, the academic achievement of SWD may be adversely impacted. The IEP Team must collaborate to create an effective Individualized Education Program (IEP) that is specially designed for their target student in the student’s current educational placement. Special Education Directors (SED) are central to the functioning of IEP Teams as they support SWD in SOP. This relationship, and the resulting provision of special education services, has not been thoroughly researched. The purposes of this mixed methods study were to identify the needs of SWD in SOP, to identify the processes used by IEP Teams to support SWD in SOP, and to determine how those processes meet the needs and support SWD in SOP. The first phase of research was a quantitative online survey of SED followed by a second phase of qualitative semi-structured interviews of selected participants which more fully elucidated current student needs and IEP Team processes that address those needs and support these students. Findings include a confidence in the established IEP Team process and in special education staff, concerns over the ability of special education staff to support or accommodate SWD in online courses, the perception that the needs of SWD in online educations settings are different than those in face-to-face settings, the perception that the SED give significant guidance to IEP Teams while allowing them independent function, and the use of the Covid-19 related increase in online learning to identify ways to better serve SWD online. This research suggests IEP Teams return to the IEP Team meeting and to the familiar process through which to do the requisite work to support SWD in online educational settings."--Boise State University ScholarWorks.

Download or read book The Impact of IEP Team Composition and Transition Planning: Upon the Success of Students with Disabilities in Urban Schools written by Petrina D. Hill and published by . This book was released on 2013-10 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The primary purpose of this correlation study was to examine the impact of IEP team composition (team member attendance) and transition planning (types of transition outcomes) upon the success (graduation) of students with disabilities in urban districts. Other factors also included gender, academic status of school, socioeconomic status of the students, and age of the students at graduation. Transition is defined as the point at which change occurs in somebody's life (Cimera & Rusch, 2000). All humans are affected or impacted by transitions occurring in their lives. Some researchers agree that transition for students with disabilities can be more difficult than transition for students without disabilities, reflecting the need for the participation of students with disabilities in their IEP development specifically transition planning (Cimera & Rusch, 2000; Furney & Salembier, 2000; Garguilo, 2003; Kohler & Chapman, 1999; Martin, Marshall & Sale, 2004; Trach & Sheldon, 2000; Wagner & Blackorby, 1996). Furthermore, planning and implementing transition services for students with disabilities is mandated by federal law. The evidence of transition planning is the development of the transition page of the student's individual educational plan (IEP). Every sixteen year old student with disabilities should have a transition page developed and incorporated into the IEP and every fourteen year old student with disabilities should have a statement of needed transition services incorporated into the IEP. The development of the transition page is critical because the goals of these transition services address the following areas: instruction, community service, employment, and other adult-living objectives (Yell, 2006). The achievement of these transition goals translates to a better quality of life in adulthood for students with disabilities (Gargiulo, 2003). For example, Benz, Lindstrom, and Yovanoff (as cited in Conderman & Katisyannis, 2002) identified that career-related work experience and the completion of student-identified transition goals were highly associated with improved graduation and employment outcomes. Furthermore, IDEA 2004 (IDEIA) requires IEP teams to prepare recommendations and a summary of the student's academic achievement and functional performance, which includes recommendations on how to assist the student to meet post secondary goals (IDEA, 20 U.S.C. 1414(e)(5)(B)(ii). Likewise, research indicates the need for comprehensive transitional planning with a broad focus (Childre & Chambers, 2005; The PACER Center, 2006; Warger & Burnette, 2000). The primary independent variables (IEP team composition, the number of transition outcomes present, and the type of transition outcomes present) demonstrated statistical significance as indicated by an increase in the number of transition outcomes when parents and students are present at the IEP conferences and by the increase in the types of transition outcomes included in the discussion during transition planning. These results may direct future research. Particularly, a relationship exists between parent presence, administrator presence, and student presence at the IEP conference and graduation; parent presence and types of transition outcomes (independent living and community service) and student presence and types of transition outcomes during the eleventh grade year.
