For courses in Inclusion/Mainstreaming or Introduction to Special Education. This successful and comprehensive, categorically-organized methods-based text examines how to teach all students with varying abilities in the same classroom. The Seventh Edition of Teaching Special Students in General Education Classrooms is uncompromising in its dedication to prepare educators to effectively teach the range of students found in the typical elementary or secondary classroom. Using a case-based approach, the text provides information about four groups of students with special needs: students with disabilities, gifted and talented learners, culturally and linguistically diverse individuals, and students at risk for school failure. In addition, it demonstrates the vast resources we now have available through technology, and presents practical strategies for adapting standard instruction to meet the learning needs of all students in general education classrooms. Furthermore, the reauthorization of IDEA is included, emphasizing for readers why this law is important and how it impacts educators and professionals. As the practice of inclusion expands, the challenges for teachers increase. Teaching Students in General Education Classrooms, 7th Edition is everything a future teacher needs to know in order to work effectively and sensitively within increasingly diverse elementary and secondary classrooms..

For African Americans, school is often not a place to learn but a place of low expectations and failure. In urban schools with concentrations of poverty, often fewer than half the ninth graders leave with a high school diploma.

Black and White teachers here provide an insightful approach to inclusive and equitable teaching and illustrate its transformative power to bring about success.

This book encourages reflection and self-examination, calls for understanding how students can achieve and expecting the most from them. It demonstrates what’s involved in terms of recognizing often-unconscious biases, confronting institutional racism where it occurs, surmounting stereotyping, adopting culturally relevant teaching, connecting with parents and the community, and integrating diversity in all activities.

This book is replete with examples of practice and telling insights that will engage teachers in practice or in service. It should have a place in every classroom in colleges of education. Its empowering message applies not just to teachers of Black students, but illuminates teaching in every racially diverse setting..
