"Simply put, students with disabilities should be learning the same challenging curriculum as other students. Though this is a simple concept, the diverse needs of the students with disabilities make implementation of this requirement complex. Nolet and McLaughlin have provided the field with a valuable resource for meeting this challenge.

Accessing the General Curriculum presents a framework and strategies for all K-12 teachers in inclusive environments. Nolet and McLaughlin bring practical information and insight to this difficult subject, making it easier to design instruction that enables all students to access and make progress in the general curriculum. It also helps teachers, administrators, and curriculum development specialists design measures that can be used to assess the progress of special needs students as well as develop effective, collaborative relationships between general and special education instructors.
Key topics include:
- Aligning IDEA
- ′97 and standards-based reform
- Linking standards and curriculum
- Establishing three domains of knowledge for ensuring access to the curriculum
- Understanding the nature of curriculum
- Applying learning research to teaching
- Evaluating progress in the general curriculum
- Aligning the IEP with goals and objectives
- Universal design Creating conditions for access
