| Roundtable + Classroom Practice: curriculum & instruction + Everyone |
| In some ways, the law that created special education (Individuals with Disabilities Education Act, or IDEA) can be interpreted as a great support for our work. What could be more helpful than a federal law declaring that all students can and will learn, given community support and appropriate instruction involving individualized goals? Yet in practice, IDEA threatens to become a hindrance to the real business of educating, as we are asked to keep up with the bureaucracy of a law-driven approach that seems sometimes antithetical to the "human scale." Regardless of your level of familiarity with IDEA or your relationship to it, you are invited to come share your perspective and listen to others' as we discuss the essential questions, "What does/could/should implementation of IDEA look like in our schools?" |
