Synopsis

For the K-12 special education methods course for future teachers of students with learning problems.

 

Knowing that no one approach to teaching is right for all children all of the time, this comprehensive, yet accessible, case-based text presents current “best practices,” with the aim of helping prospective teachers learn to tailor instruction to the diverse needs and abilities of students with learning problems. The authors explore the entire inclusion movement and the theories of teaching and learning that inform it; discuss the nature of students with learning problems and the characteristics of effective teachers; and, describe a broad spectrum of proven instructional strategies for all curriculum areas. Finally, they examine the unique challenges and opportunities that transitions create for students with learning problems.

À propos de la quatrième de couverture

From the title of this text, Teaching Students with Learning Problems in the Inclusive Classroom, you could assume that the authors utilize their extensive teaching experience to demonstrate how students with learning problems can gain access to the general education curriculum. However, the authors give their readers much more than that. This accessible and comprehensive text presents "best practices"―tested instructional methods and strategies―designed to help preservice and practicing teachers differentiate instruction so that all students in diverse teaching and learning environments can succeed.
