Legal Issues in Special Education: Principles, Policies, and Practices
Autor Kevin Brady, Charles Russo, Cynthia Dieterich, Allan Osborne, Jren Limba Engleză Paperback – 11 noi 2019
Even though over 50 percent of students with disabilities are now educated in general education classes, most teachers are not required to complete coursework in special education law and can unwittingly expose themselves and their schools to liability for violating the rights of students with disabilities. This practitioner’s guide explicitly addresses the major issues and legal complexities educators inevitably face when dealing with special education legal and policy issues.
Using case-based learning to synthesize important legal concepts and principles from leading special education legal cases, this text guides educators, administrators, and parents alike toward a thorough understanding of, and the ability to navigate, many of the current and pressing legal concerns in special education.

Recenzii
"Most textbooks used in American law schools rely on the case-based learning method, in which actual judicial opinions or parts of judicial opinions are the primary method of teaching the law. Unfortunately, this method has been viewed as a less useful form of instruction for nonlawyers. In Legal Issues in Special Education, however, the authors combine direct instruction of important special education legal principles with illustrative cases. The result is a very successful and much appreciated addition to the literature on teaching special education law to teachers and administrators."
Mitchell L. Yell, Ph.D., Fred and Francis Lester Palmetto Chair in Teacher Education at the University of South Carolina.
"This book fills an important need in the professional learning of all educators. As a former superintendent of schools, I wish this resource had been available for our faculty and leadership team. As the current director of an Ed.D. Program, I see the need for practicing school and district leaders to deepen their knowledge in special education law. Courses in school law cannot devote sufficient attention to special education. This resource will help fill a critical gap for novice and experienced educators."

"Legal Issues in Special Education is essential reading for school administrators, policymakers, teachers, and parents alike.
