Writing for school principals at the front lines of educational reform, McLaughlin (special education, University of Maryland) explains the intentions of various special education policies in the US, and offers ideas and cases on implementing the latest policies in schools. Detailed information is given on Individualized Educational Plans (IEPs), the least restrictive environment, eligibility, legal issues, and assessment. Elements of high-quality special education programs and services are then identified. Guidelines are provided on adopting evidence-based practices, data-based decision making, and collaboration between general and special educators. This second edition takes into account the 2004 Individuals with Disabilities Education Improvement Act and recent No Child Left Behind legislation pertaining to students with disabilities, and their impact on new procedures for developing IEPs and new reporting requirements. This edition also offers more emphasis on prevention of behavior problems under the new requirements. The author is associate director of the Institute for the Study of Exceptional Children and Youth at the University of Maryland-College Park.
