Implementation of iPads and other mobile devices as teaching tools in special education classrooms provide significant improvements in academic learning, as well as improvements in behavior, social engagement, communication and self-determination. Not only does the use of iPads help students in special education classrooms, they are also easy and manageable for teachers and parents to utilize. iPads are easy to operate, malleable in terms of updating applications, programs and software, and they…

Since the introduction of CTE programs, the special needs education has grown immensely (Barry & Leather, 2012). There has been a diversification of career programs such as information technology, biotechnology, hospitality, engineering among others, giving the students an opportunity to join different fields of expertise (Barry & Leather, 2012). As a substitute teacher, one of the challenges special education face is the equality of resources in CTE teaching and learning…

Classroom environment has a crucial role in children’s learning and development for two reasons. At the early stage, appropriate environmental stimulation is essential for children 's brain growth. The amount of stimulation children receives directly affects children’s cognitive, social, and emotional skills. (Berk, 2014, p.94). The other reason that the classroom environment is vital because children spend a considerable amount of time in school. From kindergarten through third-grade, children…

The third stipulation of the IDEA is that districts provide a free, appropriate education (FAPE) in public schools for all disabled students. The districts must pay for the cost of a student’s education and it must be based on a plan that is specialized for the student, based on their needs. The extent to which a district must go concerning this stipulation was challenged in the landmark case of Board of Education vs. Rowley. Amy Rowley a deaf Kindergarten student was receiving a hearing aid…

Throughout this entire book I enjoyed how the writers made everything so simplified. Being a special education teacher is not easy. Adding a ton of acronyms to that makes it even worse. It was nice to get the basics in a way that helped me understand what it was talking about. With this book and through my work with students who have special needs, it made me feel a lot more confident about knowing how to help these students. The first thing in the book that I remember relating to was about a…

Over the course of studying E214 I have thought greatly about my own practice working as an HLTA in a mainstream primary school, where I mainly work with children that experience barriers to learning. These barriers are due to the children having special educational needs or due to having English as an additional language. I now question whether the children I work with are part of a system that has created othering and if through them being othered they included as fully as possible or are they…

childhood settings, it is important to note that not all child care administrators and day care facilities are experienced or knowledgeable enough to accommodate the needs of all children with disabilities. Moreover, while full inclusion of children with special needs in a regular child care program is considered to be an attribute of high quality early childhood education (ECE), it is not always the preferred method practiced in Canada (Finding Quality Child Care, 2015). Hence, administrators…

would take the children longer to learn and no help would be provided on what they would need to do at home to achieve. However, a deputy head teacher of a special needs school might be preoccupied with their own needs and might not be able to talk to a child who has been on report for 2 weeks, due to silly behaviour because they have family problems. This can affect the way a child would respond in the future because the child may perceive that the deputy head teacher is not concerned about the…

hildhood special education provides the outcome-based services that enable young children with disabilities to have a hopeful and promising future” (Carpenter, Johnson, & Beard, 2014, p. 62). This statement is one that I have seen in action for many friends and students over the last few years. As I am planning to teach within the early childhood education setting, this is something that should be the focus for all young students with special needs. Through a program such as early childhood…
