Extractions: Increasingly, Inclusion and Inclusive Education are becoming buzzwords to which everyone subscribes. However, behind the language lies a struggle for human rights, which is by no means won nor complete. Powerful policy statements have been adopted by the international community following pressure from human rights activists and the Disabled People's Movement. The Salamanca Statement, adopted by UNESCO in July 1994, was adopted by governments and 20 non-government organisations, Every child has a fundamental right to education and must be given the opportunity to achieve and maintain acceptable levels of learning. Every child has unique characteristics, interest, abilities and learning needs. Education systems should be designed and educational programmes implemented to take into account the wide diversity of these characteristics and needs. Those with special educational needs must have access to mainstream shcools, which should accommodate them with a child-centred pedagogy capable of meeting those needs.

Extractions: FICTION: Parents and advocates are unreasonable and consistently oppose efforts to reform Ch. 766. FACT: Parents and advocates actively participated with 15 statewide organizations to develop a comprehensive and far-reaching Special Education Reform Proposal. This proposal, which represents major concessions by parents, addresses mechanisms to tighten eligibility, reduce costs for independent evaluations, revise discipline standards for children with disabilities, and increase the states share of special education costs. Parents and advocates developed this Reform Proposal in conjunction with state organizations representing superintendents, school committees, principals, special education directors, private schools, collaboratives, and teachers unions.

Extractions: Source: ERIC Clearinghouse on Reading English and Communication Bloomington IN. Student Diversity and Learning Needs. ERIC Digest. To successfully reach out to a diversity of learners requires substantial support. Although budget-minded critics will argue that such support is costly, they need to be reminded that an investment in prevention today will eliminate or lessen the expense of remediation tomorrow. Not surprisingly, educators who receive substantial help are more effective when carrying out worthwhile innovations that increase all students' potential for success. This notion of support is vitally important because students' "at-riskness" will not disappear and because the government and educational community continue to believe in the efficacy of raising academic standards. This Digest will discuss some sources of support intended as a complement to and a scaffold for teachers and administrators who experiment with different ways of meeting a diversity of learning needs. CURRICULAR CONGRUENCE At-risk learners benefit from instructional activities that are carefully planned and mutually supported by classroom teachers and learning center staff (Nelson, 1994). Unfortunately, many schools provide separate instruction in both settings. For example, in the English classroom, students may explore the theme of good and evil by reading and discussing William Golding's "Lord of the Flies," whereas in the learning center, at-risk students may complete workbook exercises and other fragmented activities unrelated to the instructional theme. Clearly, at-risk learners are more likely to be successful when classroom and learning center teachers provide them with congruent goals, resources, strategies, and skills.

Extractions: GETTING YOUTH ON BOARD Families know how important it is to learn about laws and systems that provide services to our children with special needs. We also know the value of connecting with other families, but what happens when our children grow up and want to be their own advocates? There are not many places where teens and young adults can go to learn about systems, gain leadership skills, and support one another. This led Family Voices to create KASA (Kids As Self-Advocates). KASA is a "virtual organization" based in the office of Julie Keys, Family Voices staffer in Chicago. Julie and her young friends chat through e-mail and phone, represent youth at national events, and are planning to start a website, hold leadership trainings, sponsor a conference, and prepare one another for the adult world. If you are a teen or know of a teen or young adult with special needs who would like to be a part of this exciting movement, tell them to contact Julie Keys at: 312-642-2745 or email: FamilyVoices_JKeys@msn.com

Extractions: Odds Bodkin Life's little victories. Ah, they are sweet. Even in the life of a storyteller, they do indeed occur. Here's a true one. The Moore Center for the Developmentally Disabled, a nonprofit based in New Hampshire, asked me to create a story to sensitize ordinary children to accept developmentally disabled kids mainstreamed into their schools. My solution was a story called WGACA. Funny name for a story, WGACA, pronounced Wahgahcah. I strum my twelve string guitar and tell it to fifth through twelfth-graders. Briefly, the story is about Meadowbrook School, where a clique of popular, talented kids routinely mistreats a child with special needs named Jeff Powers. That is, until a mysterious workman installs what looks like a giant thermometer outside their cafeteria door. Across the top are the letters WGACA. Jon, the hero of my little tale, notices over the course of a week that every time someone hurts Jeff Powers' feelings, the red liquid in the WGACA meter rises toward a reservoir of yellow liquid at the top. It's metering the child's emotions. Finally, it spills over. Bubbling, orange mist fills the tube. Next day, the WGACA Effect strikes the clique.

Extractions: By Joanne Kenen WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Legislation to revamp special education in schools by emphasizing achievement and cutting bureaucracy passed the U.S. Senate on Thursday in a rare bipartisan 95-3 vote. The bill updates a landmark 1975 law that revolutionized teaching children with learning or developmental disabilities. Until then, many special needs children were institutionalized, segregated in separate rooms or denied services they needed to achieve their potential. Although much legislation this election year is bogged down in partisan disputes and differences between the House of Representatives and the Senate, the special ed bill's sponsors expect it will be reconciled with a House version approved a year ago. It would then go to President Bush to sign into law. The biggest dispute was over funding. By law the federal government should pay 40 percent of special ed costs, but it has not. Spending has increased in the last few years, and the Senate voted to authorize full funding of $26.1 billion by 2011. The money would still have to be appropriated in separate spending bills each year. "We've said that special ed is a priority, that it goes to the head of the line," New Hampshire Republican Sen. Judd Gregg., chairman of the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pension committee, told reporters.
