Download or read book Left Behind with No 'IDEA' written by Alex J. Hurder and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 29 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 (NCLB) required America's public schools to make every student proficient in reading, math and science by the year 2014. The 2004 amendments to the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (“IDEA”) attempted to reconcile the IDEA with the NCLB. The IDEA gives parents the right to negotiate educational programs for their children with disabilities and creates procedures to protect the parents' role. The 2004 IDEA amendments unjustifiably reduced the power of parents of children with disabilities to negotiate appropriate educational programs for their children. The changes have the greatest impact on parents with limited financial means. The heart of the IDEA is its promise of a free appropriate public education in the most integrated setting possible. The IDEA's strategy for providing education in an integrated environment to students whose unique needs require specially tailored educational programs is to guarantee an individualized educational program (IEP) for each eligible child. The IDEA seeks to guarantee the appropriate content of individualized programs by giving the parents of each eligible child a significant role in determining the program. Parents not only have the right to participate in drafting the IEP, but they have the right to seek administrative and judicial review of the content and implementation of an IEP. The 2004 amendments to the IDEA and two subsequent U.S. Supreme Court cases have made it more difficult and more expensive for parents to obtain meaningful review of school actions. The IDEA needs to be amended to restore and strengthen the role of parents in the education of children with disabilities.

This book was released on 2021-10-22 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The lives of students with disabilities need to be told in ways that inform preservice teachers about the work involved to legally and morally meet the needs of these students. Hearing the positive and negative experiences of students with disabilities from elementary through college can inform preservice teachers as well as potentially prevent them from repeating some of the same mistakes. The richness of the personal stories of these students and how their experiences can shape the future for students like them offers teachable moments for professors and preservice teachers to use in classrooms. Advising Preservice Teachers Through Narratives From Students With Disabilities heralds the stories of students with disabilities as they trace their journey from the PK-12 setting into university and adult life and addresses aspects that any new teacher must know in order to meet the needs of today's PK-12 classrooms. Covering topics such as social justice, virtual learning, and faculty convenience, it is ideal for preservice teachers, practicing teachers, administrators, professors, researchers, academicians, and students.

This book was released on 2008 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2004, the National Council on Disability (NCD) issued a report called "No Child Left Behind: Improving Educational Outcomes for Students with Disabilities," which examined the impact of No Child Left Behind (NCLB) and the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) on improving educational outcomes for students with disabilities. This report provides both a follow-up and a more detailed reporting of the trends and attitudes about NCLB and IDEA over the past several years. The authors spoke to dozens of researchers, practitioners, and state administrators from across the country about NCLB and IDEA. In addition, they conducted a study of 10 of the largest states in the nation, representing approximately half the U.S. general population. This report is divided into four sections. Part I provides a brief overview of trend data regarding students with disabilities. Part II describes conversations with state administrators and representatives about trends and issues related to NCLB and IDEA. Part III describes similar conversations with advocates, federal officials, and other stakeholders. Part IV provides recommendations based on the authors' findings. The following are appended: (1) Mission of the National Council on Disability; (2) Terminology; (3) Key Stakeholders Interviewed, March-May 2007; (4) Accountability Issues in the 10 States; (5) NCLB/IDEA Case Study Reports; and (6) State Data Tables.

This book was released on 2013-12-21 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by parents who have been through the US special education system, this book cuts through the jargon to provide other parents with a no-nonsense road map full of valuable first-hand insights and tried-and-tested advice. The authors clearly describe: · the special education process, including the school hierarchies parents are likely to encounter and etiquette to be aware of when dealing with school personnel · the information parents should expect to see in school evaluations and Individualized Education Programs (IEPs), and what to do when this information is missing or insufficient · problems parents may encounter when the needs of the school conflict with the needs of a child, including how to deal with such situations and when to seek legal advice · the importance of organizing special education documentation and establishing a 'paper trail', and how to begin this process · why transition planning is so important, and transition services parents may want to consider for their child. Demonstrating that parents really do have the power to make special education work for their child, this empowering guide is essential reading for parents of children with disabilities who are new to the special education system in the US, as well as those who feel frustrated with the system.

Download or read book The Mismeasure of Education written by Jim Horn and published by IAP. This book was released on 2013-07-01 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With new student assessments and teacher evaluation schemes in the planning or early implementation phases, this book takes a step back to examine the ideological and historical grounding, potential benefits, scholarly evidence, and ethical basis for the new generation of test based accountability measures. After providing the political and cultural contexts for the rise of the testing accountability movement in the 1960s that culminated almost forty years later in No Child Left Behind and Race to the Top, this book then moves on to provide a policy history and social policy analysis of value-added testing in Tennessee that is framed around questions of power relations, winners, and losers. In examining the issues and exercise of power that are sustained in the long-standing policy of standardized testing in schools, this work provides a big picture perspective on assessment practices over time in the U. S.; by examining the rise of value-added assessment in Tennessee, a fine-grained and contemporary case is provided within that larger context. The last half of the book provides a detailed survey of the research based critiques of value-added methodology, while detailing an aggressive marketing campaign to make value-added modeling (VAM) a central component of reform strategies following NCLB. The last chapter and epilogue place the continuation of test-based accountability practices within the context of an emerging pushback against privatization, high stakes testing, and other education reforms. This book will be useful to a wide audience, including teachers, parents, school leaders, policymakers, researchers, and students of educational history, policy, and politics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After a half-a-century of school reform, a majority of Americans consider the public schools as worse today than when they attended school. Those reforms missed the mark because they were not focused on the backgrounds of the students’ parents--by far the most important indicator of students’ progress in school. The importance of parents was documented by the Coleman Report more than 50 years ago. School reform must be continued but re-directed to over-come the power of low parental socio-economic status. The best way to improve the schools is to create a better, fairer economy providing parents with good jobs and decent wages. In the meantime, good pre-school, after-school, and other aids are needed to help students from low income families. Teacher quality, although not as influential as the parents’ backgrounds, is the second most significant indicator of student success. Teachers, like parents, have not been the focus of the attention their importance deserves. In particular, teachers should be fairly paid, and their verbal and cognitive skills improved. The Coleman Report again documented the importance of those skills more than half-a-century ago. Instead, money, time, and effort have been spent on reforms that won’t bring about great improvement because they did not address adequately those two important factors.

Download or read book The Essential Special Education Guide for the Regular Education Teacher written by Edwards Burns and published by Charles C Thomas Publisher. This book was released on 2007 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) of 2004 has placed a renewed emphasis on the importance of the regular classroom, the regular classroom teacher and the general curriculum as the primary focus of special education. This book contains over 100 topics that deal with real issues and concerns regarding the regular classroom and the special education process. These concerns range from requirements for referring a child for an individual evaluation, school discipline, classroom-based assessment, IEP meetings, inclusion and mainstreaming, and various legal requirements relating to IDEA, Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, and the No Child Left Behind act. It stresses the importance that every child with a disability must have goals to enable the child to be involved in and make progress in the general education curriculum.OCO Other issues interspersed within this text include classroom needs, the planning of individualized education programs, and participation in all aspects of the general curriculum. In order to achieve these goals, support for the regular classroom teacher must be provided so that children with disabilities can be involved in, and make progress in, the curriculum and participate in nonacademic activities."
