Conflict Resolution: Problems Faced By Special Education Students

Improved Essays
The topic for my conflict resolution paper I have picked is a situation that happened here on campus. I was bullied by a person of the opposite sex. This happened over the period of seven months, it gradually got worse before it got better like most problems do. Now, today this person and I have acted like it never happen. We say hi to each other all the time and he sits with us at the table in ding rather it is at lunch or dinner. I am almost 23 years old and this person is right around my age. So being older or way younger was the not the problem. The problem was that I was a special education student and he did not like that very much. He thought I was the stupidest thing on earth.
The first time I came into contact with him was the first

The first that is very noticeable in this specific problem is that girls are more emotional than guys. I was very upset and, extremely emotional for a long time and for him, he just felt like he was like whatever and move on in life. It ever ceased him one bit he could care less how he hurt me so bad. When he wanted to conquer his frustration about me he did it like a typical man where he did in a very loud and rounded way. His biggest problem was that it a game of a regular student verses a special education also known as a disabled person. In his eyes, he won very clearly. Another, stereotype that stands out to me is that this young gentleman was very to the point and also very competitive. When he started telling people it’s what he thought of me it was to the point and my way or the highway. He did not listen or care what other people thought of me. The stereotypes I had were very emotional presence and I also very over communicative about everything. I thought all my friends had to know and I expected them to also give this male the silent treatment. Which some did and the other did not give him the silent …show more content…
I have learned that not everyone accepts people with a learning and speech disability. Even the people that think that they would never make mistakes, eventually they make a mistake too. I think if this person and I were the same gender sex I would have handle this a different way. Even if I did not have feeling for the guy I would defiantly handle this major problem differently. I have learned that men and women are completely different in almost every way. If this guy was a different kind of guy I would have also handled this issue differently. I am not the only person he has hurt in the last two and half years here while attending Blackburn

    Special Education Policy Case Review There are four sources of law in the United States, one of which is the rulings of judicial courts (Russo & Osborne, 2008). It’s these court trials and judicial opinions that determine how legislation is to be interpreted and applied because at times, legislation is ambiguous or broad or may not necessarily take into account the affects of preexisting legislation. As with all other types of legislation, lawsuits regarding special education occur and it’s the result of these laws that have determined how the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) is interpreted and implemented. Three cases, Doug C. v. Hawaii, PV v. Philadelphia, and Endrew F. v. Douglas County School District are recent cases…

    Ethical challenges can occur during collaboration between a parent and a special education teacher regarding services provided to a student with a disability. One challenging scenario would be when a parent does not want a child to receive any special education services though the child has qualified. We do not understand the parents mental model with a different aspect of the social world then ourselves. To insure the child is receiving the proper services it is important for teachers to attempt to establish a paradigm shift (Amatea, 2013). To help a paradigm shift, special education teachers must discuss the reason why the parent does not want their child in special education.…

    He unleashed a flurry of japs and punches in his rage. To my surprise, every individual hit was strong and hurt upon impact. I defended as many of the punches as I possibly could, but even the ones I could block gradually hurt me. During that time, I couldn't land a single hit, for I was essentially focusing on defending myself and making any openings would have not been ideal. I could’ve continued to keep up with his punches, except while I was avoiding one of his attacks, I lost my footing, curled my head forward to protect it, and landed on the floor with my back first, which was what we were taught.…

    Introduction Special education has made significant changes over the past years, partly due to the fact that people have stood up and made a change for the better toward children with disabilities. Children are no longer put into segregated hospitals and left to die and forgotten about. Children for many years were labeled as unlovable and a disgrace and hid away from society. Parents were faced with humiliation and public scorning for having a child with a disability and lived in fear. People are now more widely educated and have advanced over the past century to include children with disabilities as part of society and not simply a disgrace to be swept under the rug.…

    Special education is in every school system to help students with disabilities have success in life. According to Artiles and colleagues research, children back in the 1800s were excluded from educational opportunities (Artiles, Harris-Murri, and Rostenberg, 2006, p. 260). Children with disabilities were often segregated into either a separate classroom or separate schools with curriculum that didn’t fit their needs (Artiles, 2006, p. 260). Children were held to low standards, but fortunately that is not the way we see special education today. With the introduction of the Individual with Disabilities Education Act otherwise known in IDEA in 2004 we see more of a movement towards inclusion (Department of Education, 2004).…

In an attempt to meet the mandates of NCLB and IDEA, educators must address impediments to special education student’s academic achievement. Therefore, it is necessary to evaluate how culture, specifically special education culture is keeping students with a disability from achieving academically.

    Before taking this course and being out in the field for 20 hours, special education was not my ideal teaching job. Special education was always intimidating to me because there is so much important information that is needed. IEP’s, parents, and goal setting are just a few to name that intimidated me until now. After getting to experience being in a special education room with the students and asking Nicole Degroot questions about these topics, I now I feel that special education may be the positon for me. From the first day of my observation hours, Mrs. Degroot made me feel completely welcome and comfortable, which made the experience that much better.…
