Spotlight on Special Education
We have organized many of our
site's special education resources for easy reference here.
We have also highlighted a special
education related Tip to Go and School on the Move below. |
Standards-Based Instruction: Is It
Possible for Students with Disabilities? (Encore Presentation)
 July 18 - Free Online Event
How can we close
the achievement gaps that seem to be persistent or widening for special education students?
Research-based, systematic standards-focused instruction has tremendously improved outcomes for
general education students, but how can this same approach facilitate closing the achievement
gap for special education students? Due to the popularity of this event in April of 2006 and
the interest in this topic, Silvia DeRuvo, Special Education Resources Development Specialist
for the California Comprehensive Center at WestEd, will present this session again with added
information about a standards-based IEP Web module.
Full

teachers to raise achievement for all students at a California high school.

California, focused on English Language Arts (ELA) and reading intervention, professional

achievement.
