Viewpoints on interventions for learners with disabilities

Interventions in special education are results of advocacy, legislation, litigation, research, and trends.

Since interventions come in many forms, they represent multidimensional viewpoints and perspectives and need to be handled with professional care, integrity, fidelity.

This book highlights the fact there are skill-sets needed to work with divergent disability categories.

The chapters begin with introducing readers to contextual bases of interventions for learners with disabilities and end with futuristic perspectives that go beyond tradition.

Other chapters focus on students with learning disabilities, emotional and behavioural disorders, and intellectual disabilities.

Additional chapters focus on students who are deaf and hard of hearing, and students with visual impairments, autism, severe disabilities, traumatic brain injury and other health impairments.
