Regular and special education administrators regularly encounter problems when attempting to work together to create and maintain successful special education programs. This updated and improved second edition seeks to overcome this obstacle by training readers in shared problem solving. Each chapter focuses on a specific issue--including school reform, fiscal and human-resource matters, school governance, identification and placement, conflict resolution, program evaluation, transportation, and discipline--followed by real-life case studies and questions designed to encourage inclusive thinking and discussion within a cohort. These real-life case studies are an ideal way to hone problem-solving skills in the safety of the classroom and prepare for real-world situations. The second edition integrates new legislation, such as IDEA 2004 and No Child Left Behind, and discusses contemporary developments including Response to Intervention (RtI). Enhanced graphics and semantic maps effectively highlight key terms and concepts. The authors have added a new section featuring concept maps and key vocabulary terms for each case study. Instructors will appreciate this invaluable tool to facilitate discussion and promote critical thinking about the elements presented in each chapter.
