Strategies for Teaching Content Effectively in the Inclusive Secondary Classroom 

    Lisa Dieker and Rebecca Hines

 

Strategies for Teaching Content Effectively in the Inclusive Secondary Classroom provides classroom applications, school-wide recommendations and content-specific strategies to support students with disabilities in secondary general education settings.

 

By focusing on the planning pyramid, multiple intelligence, Universal Design for Learning and instructional time, the book shows how to create an inclusive climate across the school and in the classroom. Specific content-area chapters feature proven techniques for teaching all learners reading, writing, listening, speaking, science, math and social studies. Tips for co-teaching, behavior management, and assessment help teachers learn how to improve their instruction and make it more effective for secondary students with disabilities. 

 

 

This is not only a text, but a daily reference tool.

- Terryl Swejk, State Support Team Region -9, Canton, Ohio

 

The scope of the text is large, in that it addresses both the “big picture” of education, and the details and methods one uses when teaching.

- Michael P. O’Connor, Professor, Augusta State University, Augusta, Georgia

 

The overall focus is practical, classroom-friendly methods grounded in validated research. I think that this is very much in step with the field, and furthermore should serve as a valuable reference for students after they graduate and begin their teaching careers.
