Turkish military launches new incursion into northern Iraq Court reviews how much care schools must provide the disabled By Laurie Asseo Associated Press WASHINGTON - The Supreme Court debated Wednesday how much nursing care schools must provide to disabled students, a significant issue for special education. An Iowa school district's lawyer argued it should not have to pay for a quadriplegic boy's all-day care. Such continuous care should be considered medical treatment that public school districts need not provide to disabled children, Susan L. Seitz contended for the Cedar Rapids Community School District. "A nurse just for you? Certainly there can be a line drawn there to say that's medical" and the school shouldn't have to pay for it, she said. Douglas R. Oelschlaeger, a lawyer for 16-year-old Garret Frey, said schools cannot avoid providing care simply by arguing it is too expensive. "Not having enough nurses shouldn't be considered when you define what is or is not a medical service" that a school need not fund, Oelschlaeger argued.

Site Map Contact Us 2001 Special Education Program in Novgorod, Russia: Outcomes "I feel that the outcomes more than met by expectations [and that I have gained:] a broadened sense of education throughout the world; perspective on Russian teachers as being passionate for their profession; understanding of hardships in Russia ... and how Russians overcome adversity to maintain a high level of literacy and education." Randy Weger, Grand Rapids, MI As with any cross-cultural experience, each participant took away something unique from the time spent in Novgorod. However, in sharing their reactions and reflections, program participants agreed on a number of points relating to the personal and professional impacts of the program. Members of the host organization, "Community," Tanya, Lidia, Marina and Vera share Russian folk songs during some down time in Novgorod. Competency to compare and contrast special education approaches in the U.S. and Russia: some aspects of special education are amazingly similar in the U.S. and Russia (e.g. speech pathology); others are markedly different (e.g. children considered mildly disabled in the U.S. and thus mainstreamed may be classified as more severe in Russia and hence excluded from regular schools) Understanding of the two-way nature of a cross-cultural professional exchange: one participant remarked, "I envisioned that we would come here as ambassadors, saying 'This is how we do special education.' But I quickly realized that we all have strengths and weaknesses and things to learn from one another."

National click here to find parent advocacy organizations in your state Share your story with us! E-mail KIC today at advocates@ideacompliance.org Subject Message Vermont Organizations such as yours should be a model for each state. At least from my experience, independent advocacy groups can and will accomplish more on a local and state level than national organizations or organizations formed through state and federal grant mechanisms. National organizations such as COPAA will be strengthened through well organized and well informed independent state organizations. Kansas is a particularly tough state on disabled children; especially children with autism. Having been involved in a case there for almost a year, I read with interest your editorials and other comments regarding the due process hearing system in your state. Kansas, though, is not unique. Florida is equally insidious. States such as these perpetrate discrimination simply by maintaining the status quo through the sloggy due process systems. That is, Hearing Officers, Judges, and yes - school district defense firms - collectively maintain a system that "keeps those children in their proper place in society." The courts and the administrative Hearing Officers maintain the status quo through judicial and quasi judicial passivity. Perhaps the most effective form of judicial passivity is the circumvention of their responsibilities by the courts' near sighted reliance on their own doctricanal boundaries and categories(precedent, stare decisis, etc) to resolve cases.

New Skills for New Schools: Preparing Teachers in Family Involvement - 1997 IV. Promising Methods for Teacher Preparation No one method of instruction can prepare teachers to work effectively with families and communities. Instead, approaches must be comprehensive, integrated, and varied. While the general picture that emerges from the survey of teacher education programs indicates that traditional modes of instruction prevail, the study of nine programs suggests promising innovations in teaching methods. Table 12 illustrates these teaching and learning methods in relation to the framework for teacher preparation in family involvement. These programs utilized guest speakers, role play, the case method, community experiences, research with families and communities, self-reflection, and interprofessional education.

Search Rethinking Schools Help Home Special Voucher Report With God On Their Side ... With God On Their Side ... Christian fundamentalist textbooks make one thing clear: God is on the side of conservatives who adhere to a literal interpretation of the bible. As the U.S. Supreme Court takes up the issue of public dollars for private religious schools, one of the questions is how the curricula in religious schools differs from that of public schools, particularly on sensitive matters of politics and religion. Frances Patterson, an assistant professor at Valdosta State University in Georgia specializing in education law and professional ethics, recently examined the content in textbooks used in as many as 10,000 evangelical and fundamentalist Christian schools. Her research will be published in a forthcoming book by the Phi Delta Kappa Educational Foundation. The following is condensed and excerpted from Chapter Two, "Deluded Democrats, Liberal Villains, and Conservative Heroes." By Frances Patterson My study of textbooks used in evangelical and fundamentalist Christian schools underscores that the materials are biased toward an overwhelmingly conservative point of view on social, political, and religious matters.
