The first Introduction to Special Education text written specifically for BOTH future general and special educators. This groundbreaking text provides balanced coverage of the foundations of exceptionalities that future teachers need to know to understand their students and responsibilities, and the practical information they need to effectively teach all students.
Starts slowly with a general introduction to teaching collaboration about exceptional students (students with special needs). It is a well-organized required text with summaries, leading and follow up questions, and a systematic chapter structure, making it easy to review and take notes.
