    Extractions: The Inclusion Initiative (formerly called the Early Childhood Initiative) in New York City is an early childhood and elementary program that combines general education students and children with special needs in the same classroom. Funded by New Visions for Public Schools , the program emphasizes team teaching of special education and general education teachers, heterogeneous mixing of students, developmentally appropriate practice, authentic assessment, parent and family involvement in children's learning, and professional development. In addition to combining early childhood education and special education, some of the classrooms taking part in the initiative also are bilingual. The overall goal of the program, according to Rodriguez (1997), is "to create child-centered learning environments that encourage early school successes for all students and to eliminate tracking that occurs as children with diverse strengths and needs progress through the city school system" (p. 1). She adds that the program model includes "not only the full range of general education studentsfrom struggling to excelling studentsbut also students with a wide range of special education designationsfrom mild to severe" (p. 2). The special-needs students are fully integrated into the classroom with its challenging curriculum and high standards. In each classroom, the use of team teaching (a general education teacher and a special education teacher), a classroom assistant or paraprofessional, and smaller class size allows the teachers to provide individualized attention to each student.

Include respect for differences, "We're More Alike Than Different," as part of your regular curriculum. Not only does this foster respect for individual learning styles, physical and emotional differences, but it also fosters respect for diversity.

    Extractions: June 2001 The Bright Futures Report In 1998, CEC appointed a Presidential Commission on the Conditions of Special Education Teaching and Learning. Its charge was twofold: Because children with exceptionalities are taught in a variety of settings by a variety of educational personnel, stakeholders for this study included both general and special educators. A pilot web survey was posted, focus groups were held across the country, a major literature review was completed, and a national survey was conducted to identify current conditions. Variables that Affect a Teacher's Ability to Succeed Several themes that influence the conditions of teaching were identified. A sense of collegiality and professionalism, an environment of open and frequent communication, a climate of support, the availability of resources, and a clarity of roles and responsibilities all contribute to a sense of satisfaction for a job well done.

Each Fall, Spring and Summer the OCIPD publishes a catalog of a variety of workshops for all teachers. These workshops include Literacy and Math training, as well as other content areas and various types of assessment and instructional strategies for all students. Occasionally, a workshop devoted only to special educators is offered to supplement other training with specifically designed material, information and to address other areas of need. In addition to these workshops, the Office of Special Education has developed training to meet the unique or specific needs of students that special education teachers serve. Professional Development opportunities have included English Language Development (ELD), Literacy and Math Institutes. These required trainings focused on ensuring that the teachers receive content area knowledge, as well as age appropriate materials to implement the strategies. Teachers are always given the opportunity to modify based on individual needs of students. Other Professional Development offerings include district wide Job Alike meetings, where teachers either select a workshop of their choice to attend or meet with teachers who teach the same program and grade levels, Support Forums, New Teacher Cohort Meetings and training on the IEP writing.

Teachers in general education must have the skills and dispositions to include children with disabilities in their classrooms and to implement necessary adaptations; qualified special education teachers must be available in sufficient numbers to provide both direct services to children and assistance to other educators. Attention must be given to both of these issues. There are not enough qualified special educators, and consequently many children with disabilities progress through school without the help that could make them successful. Teachers in general education are not always sufficiently prepared for the challenges of including children with disabilities in their classrooms, again reducing these children's chances for success. The dual issues of teacher supply and high quality preparation influence the development of teacher education programs. Because teacher education is increasingly a matter of public policy, these issues frame important policy challenges that join the interests of those working to reform teacher education and those concerned with implementation of IDEA 1997.

Twice-exceptional children (that is, intellectually gifted children with special needs such as AD/HD, learning disabilities, Asperger Syndrome, etc.) have a hard time of it in our education system - because their giftedness can mask their special needs and their special needs hide their giftedness, they are often labeled as "lazy", "unmotivated", "not trying". Many people don't even realize that a child can be both gifted and learning disabled; however, Linda Silverman, Ph.D., the director of the Gifted Development Center has found that fully 1/6 of the gifted children tested at the GDC have a learning difference of some type In addition to being special needs educational advisor for families with twice-exceptional children and Contributing Editor to the new publication

THIS DIGEST WAS CREATED BY ERIC, THE EDUCATIONAL RESOURCES INFORMATION CENTER. FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT ERIC, CONTACT ACCESS ERIC 1-800-LET-ERIC INTRODUCTION Historically, teachers have worked in isolationone teacher to a classroom. As children with disabilities entered the public schools in the 1970s, they were taught in separate classrooms with their own teachers. Over the past 25 years, these students have slowly moved into the flow of the regular classroom, thus the use of the term "mainstreaming." However, students were mainstreamed for selected subjects or parts of the day; they were not considered part of the typical class. Now the philosophy is to include all students in the same class, which has brought about teams of general education and special education teachers working collaboratively or cooperatively to combine their professional knowledge, perspectives, and skills. The biggest change for educators is in deciding to share the role that has traditionally been individual: to share the goals, decisions, classroom instruction, responsibility for students, assessment of student learning, problem solving, and classroom management. The teachers must begin to think of it as "our" class. This Digest explores the facets of this new collaboration between general and special education teachers.
