Interventions in special education are results of advocacy,
legislation, litigation, research, and trends. Since interventions
come in many forms, they represent multidimensional viewpoints and
perspectives and need to be handled with professional care, integrity,
fidelity. This book highlights the fact there are skill-sets needed to
work with divergent disability categories. The chapters begin with
introducing readers to contextual bases of interventions for learners
with disabilities and end with futuristic perspectives that go beyond
tradition. Other chapters focus on students with learning
disabilities, emotional and behavioral disorders, and intellectual
disabilities. Additional chapters focus on students who are deaf and
hard of hearing, and students with visual impairments, autism, severe
disabilities, traumatic brain injury, speech and language impairments,
and physical and other health impairments. This volume presents the
voices of leaders in the field of special education and addresses
critical issues related to identification, assessment, labeling,
placement, and instruction. Furthermore, it responds to what makes
special education “special.” Not only does this volume present
historical contexts, it also authenticates the legitimacy of helping
all learners to maximize their fullest potential, the real essence of
special education. To a large extent, this book will be an excellent
resource for undergraduate and graduate students, regular educators,
special educators, educator preparation professionals, researchers,
scholars, and practitioners.
