Book Meaningful and Active Family Engagement  IEP  Transition and Technology Integration in Special Education

Download or read book Meaningful and Active Family Engagement IEP Transition and Technology Integration in Special Education written by Musyoka, Millicent M. and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2023-09-18 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the domain of education, the crucial connection between families and professionals faces obstacles that create a gap undermining student success. The conventional family engagement model falls short as the concept of "family" broadens to encompass various individuals influencing a child's learning path. Despite recognized significance backed by research and federal mandates, systemic barriers persist, disproportionately impacting culturally, linguistically, and economically diverse families. Furthermore, the absence of a unified resource that integrates disability, diversity, and technology exacerbates these issues, leaving educators unprepared to establish fair educational settings. Offering a groundbreaking solution, Millicent Musyoka's research book, titled Meaningful and Active Family Engagement: IEP, Transition, and Technology Integration in Special Education, disrupts the existing norm and redefines family engagement. Through this pioneering work, both scholars and educators gain a comprehensive manual for navigating the intricate terrain of inclusive education. Musyoka's expertise, spanning multilingualism, multicultural education, and special education, equips readers with strategies to bridge the divide between professionals and families. By highlighting legislative foundations and validated theories, the book offers a roadmap to transform engagement into purposeful collaboration. Meaningful and Active Family Engagement: IEP, Transition, and Technology Integration in Special Education covers diverse topics, including involving diverse families and those with disabilities, and integrating technology for effective communication. Through case studies, conflict resolution insights, and appreciation of diversity's benefits, Musyoka empowers readers to foster inclusive educational environments. The book's innovation lies in its comprehensive approach, addressing disability, diversity, and technology as interlinked components. Academics, educators, and service providers will discover this resource as transformative—a pivotal stride toward achieving equity, social justice, and enhanced student outcomes.

Unique scenarios not typically seen in other textbooks, such as Individualized Education Plan team disagreements, students with terminal illnesses, students with ill or overworked parents, or students living in poverty, are also explored. The text also includes: Descriptions of research-based practices to maximize students' self-determination, autonomy, goal setting, and ability to have successful life experiences, Opportunities to integrate knowledge with practice by providing strategies that relate to the real-life difficulties students and transition planning specialists may encounter, Easy-to-replicate communication tools, such as letters to students and parents, as examples to enhance collaboration, Methods for teachers to effectively promote and increase student involvement and collaboration by using structured and interactive interviews, A Collaborative Approach to Transition Planning for Students With Disabilities reflects the universal challenges that teachers, families and, finally, the students themselves face as they progress through school with a disability. For students with disabilities, the key component to successful transition planning is creating a collaborative atmosphere that allows them to be successful. This book promises to serve as an essential resource to all who are dedicated to that goal. Book jacket.
