Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
For courses in Inclusion/Mainstreaming or Introduction to Special Education. This successful and comprehensive, categorically-organized methods-based text examines how to teach all students with varying abilities in the same classroom. The Seventh Edition of Teaching Special Students in General Education Classrooms is uncompromising in its dedication to prepare educators to effectively teach the range of students found in the typical elementary or secondary classroom. Using a case-based approach, the text provides information about four groups of students with special needs: students with disabilities, gifted and talented learners, culturally and linguistically diverse individuals, and students at risk for school failure. In addition, it demonstrates the vast resources we now have available through technology, and presents practical strategies for adapting standard instruction to meet the learning needs of all students in general education classrooms. Furthermore, the reauthorization of IDEA is included, emphasizing for readers why this law is important and how it impacts educators and professionals. As the practice of inclusion expands, the challenges for teachers increase. Teaching Students in General Education Classrooms, 7th Edition is everything a future teacher needs to know in order to work effectively and sensitively within increasingly diverse elementary and secondary classrooms.

The book is pretty detailed and talks about many different laws that back up special students in education. It also talks about all the different types of special students that one ca n have in the general education classrooms. Overall I recommend this book if you have little or no knowledge of what is classified under Special students and how to go about helping them in their Education.

I've been a faithful user of the Lewis & Doorlag book since its very first edition. Each subsequent revision has added substance and useful information that makes buying it worthwhile. Of all the introductory texts on special education, this one is the most concise, reader-friendly, practical and up-to-date. It has invaluable teaching strategies and resources to inform the practice of special educators and diagnosticians. The only downside that is consistent across all editions is the unevenness of its content. In virtually every chapter about a given exceptionality, say mental retardation, more emphasis is placed on nature of the disability and teaching strategies than on its causes. Therefore, when using this book as a teaching tool in college, it has to be supplemented with other resources that do more justice to the etiology of each special need.

I am a contract instructor who uses this book for an undergraduate level "Exceptional Children in the Classroom" class. I chose this text because it is practical and not as dry as Heward, another widely respected author of special education texts. Many strategies are provided for meeting the needs of students with disabilities as well as gifted students, those who are at risk, and those who are linguistically and culturally diverse.
