http://www.glos.ac.uk/gdn/disabil/overview/ch10_3.htm

Extractions: Previous page Table of Contents Next page This will be a good time to review the general guidance provided by departments on the expected conduct and responsibilities of students and staff on field classes, and mutual expectations about behaviour. Sufficient time should be allowed to do this, and to assess any medical needs. The standard health and safety guidance should be explored, and any specific points about activities reviewed. The same general approach is applicable to the provision of documentation as to other areas of the curriculum, namely that it should be as accessible as possible, and made available in different formats if necessary. Excellent practical guidance on this is contained in HEFCE's ' Guidelines for Accessible Courseware ' (February 1999), which explains both the barriers to accessibility, and gives extensive practical advice on overcoming them, particularly through the use of technology. Bold typefaces, large print, or audio-based instructions are examples. Specific issues relating to different impairments are also contained in the other guides in this series . Detailed planning will then be underpinned by appropriate understanding. A general discussion of the extent to which it is reasonable to expect the student to make arrangements, and those matters which will be covered by the department or tutor's plans, will reduce any later misunderstandings. This should include the breakdown of costs between the two parties, general principles of which are covered by the provisions of the Disability Discrimination Act (1995).

http://www.glos.ac.uk/gdn/disabil/overview/ch10_2.htm

Extractions: Previous page Table of Contents Next page Having established the overall context within which a department operates its fieldwork requirements, specific arrangements will need to underpin the selection of field class destinations and sites, associated travel and activities. Students may need to be reminded to complete declarations of their particular needs. This will alert tutors to specific needs which will require accommodating somewhere, and the data from which will increasingly inform the general practice in considering the advantages and disadvantages of particular destinations, travel arrangements and sites. The general characteristics of the activities which will be undertaken on arrival will also need careful consideration. There are many examples of good practice in this area, and authoritative guides on meeting particular needs (Boxes 24 and 25). The Open University is one of the largest providers of courses in geography, earth and environmental sciences in the UK and routinely runs sets of field classes involving hundreds of distance-learning students. Since the majority of these are mature entrants who chose to participate in a degree course, the number of disabled students tends to be disproportionately high. As a consequence the University is experienced and has a positive and supportive approach to disability, and clear policies on inclusion. It has developed an extensive range of guidance notes for course tutors, and excellent documentation which goes out to students considering their attendance at a residential school. The University will also provide (and pay for) personal helpers, who may be family members if this is most appropriate (see

"A generation ago, few classrooms in the United States included students with disabilities.

For disabled children who did attend school, special education usually meant placement in a special class or a special school.

Extractions: Home Tasks General situation Paradigm change ... References Models of Special Needs Education in Austria In the years after World War II special needs education more and more specialised and turned into something detached from mainstream teaching. In many ways special needs education was reduced to special needs schools with all the given social implications. However, discontent with this situation was growing, and it was especially parents associations in the late seventies and early eighties that effected a sharp change in thinking. New legislation was considered and later introduced, research was initiated, and experimenting with various models was encouraged (and paid for) by the government. Gruber and Petri (1989) give an account of the most successful models that were being tested throughout the country. The Integrative Classroom The central idea is very simple: children with disabilities are educated together with the other children in the same classroom. This model would avoid segregating children who do not meet the requirements of a general school and try to meet their special needs at the same time. The children will go to a school close to their homes, beside cognitive learning there will be emphasis on social learning, and the new class situation will be a challenge and, hopefully, encourage teachers to experiment with new forms of teaching and learning. It seems appropriate to have two class teachers and a reduced number of pupils (around 20).

NEA: Bob Chase's Column 4/14/02
Do they dip into the general pot to fund special education, pitting the needs ofnondisabled students against those of students with disabilities?
http://www.nea.org/columns/bc020414.html

Extractions: President, NEA F or public school employees and their unions, the education of children with disabilities has long been a matter of principle. We strongly supported the historic 1975 federal law that directed public schools to provide a free, appropriate education to any child with special needs. And we did so with that happy sense of purpose people get when standing up for a principle. But like the parents of disabled children, public educators have learned a hard lesson in the years since then: it requires more than a big heart to implement a big-hearted law. It requires incredible vigilance, a jeweler's attention to details, and the persistence of a badger. The kids aren't the problem. Every person I've ever known who has taught disabled children has been energized by them. No, it's the adult stuff that will wear you down: mountains of paperwork, oversized classes, exhausting workloads-and above all else, the failure of Congress to fulfill its more than 20-year-old promise to fund 40 percent of the cost of educating children with special needs. Currently, the federal government covers only about 17 percent of the total cost of special education-creating a funding shortfall this year for local public schools of $10.5 billion.

The school offers assistance to students with various disabilities, including mental and physical disabilities, hearing impairment and learning problems. Its curriculum utilises the basic Primary School curriculum, adapted for the special needs of individual children. Older students are also taught sewing and other household skills.

Extractions: updated 3 January 2003 There are countless resources available for the homeschooling parent of special needs children. For years, most of us had to develop our own materials since there wasn't much specific to homeschoolers. Many of us gleaned ideas from general special needs resources and just ignored the frequent references to school. Fortunately, more resources are now available for homeschoolers and educating your own special needs child is no longer such a "where-do-I-start?" and "what-do-I-do?" proposition. Although, keep in mind that because a specific resource works for one ADHD or AS child doesn't necessarily mean that it will work for your ADHD or AS child.
