Book Synopsis Special Education by : Center for the Future of Teaching and Learning, Santa Cruz, CA.
Download or read book Special Education written by Center for the Future of Teaching and Learning, Santa Cruz, CA. and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 4 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This policy brief examines the professional development and support that teachers receive to help them work with students with special needs. In a survey commissioned by the Center for the Future of Teaching and Learning, 88% of all California teachers reported having special education students in their classes, yet only 30% reported having adequate training to effectively teach those students. By failing to support and sustain a cohesive teacher development system that targets the needs of all teachers, including those serving special education students, California is falling short of ensuring that these students have adequate and equitable opportunities for educational success. Although California has begun to move in the right direction by including special education teachers in a few major reform efforts, much more needs to be done, including: (1) Revise the "Standards for the Teaching Profession" to better align with what teachers should know and be able to do to work successfully with special education students; (2) Establish mentor teacher resource lists at each Special Education Local Plan Area (SELPA) in order to match underprepared teachers with support providers experienced in the field of special education; and (3) Include the percentage of underprepared, intern, and novice special education teachers in reports on the make-up of the teacher workforce. (Contains 2 endnotes.).

Book Synopsis Enhancing Professional Development for Teachers by : National Research Council
Download or read book Enhancing Professional Development for Teachers written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2007-10-04 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Teachers, like other professionals, need to stay informed about new knowledge and technologies. Yet many express dissatisfaction with the professional development opportunities made available to them in schools and insist that the most effective development programs they have experienced have been self-initiated. Enhancing Professional Development for Teachers explores how the provision of professional development through online media has had a significant influence on the professional lives of an increasing number of teachers. Growing numbers of educators contend that online teacher professional development (OTPD) has the potential to enhance and even transform teachers' effectiveness in their classrooms and over the course of their careers. They also acknowledge that it raises many challenging questions regarding costs, equity, access to technology, quality of materials, and other issues. Enhancing Professional Development for Teachers suggests that teachers be active participants in planning and implementation of any new technologies that enhance professional development. The book recommends that federal and state policy makers take on the responsibility of promoting equal access to technology while the federal government and foundations play an important role by supporting the development, evaluation, and revision of OTPD.

Book Synopsis Transforming Literacy: Changing Lives Through Reading and Writing by : Robert P. Waxler
Download or read book Transforming Literacy: Changing Lives Through Reading and Writing written by Robert P. Waxler and published by Emerald Group Publishing. This book was released on 2011-05-11 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is interdisciplinary in focus and centers on enlarging teachers understanding of how reading and writing can change lives and how the language arts can contribute significantly to and change educational processes in the twenty-first century. Implicit in its argument is that although the emphasis on science and math is crucial to education in the digital edge, it remains vitally important to keep reading and writing, language and story, at the heart of the educational process. This is particularly true in a democratic society because shaping stories through human language can enhance the quality of our lives, and teach us something important about what it means to be human and vulnerable. In this sense, stories allow for self-reflection and an increased opportunity to enhance and understand emotional intelligence and human community.
