Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Findings suggested students were placed in self-contained classrooms based on informal data, either from teachers or past educational performance, rather than formal criteria from the state department of education. Results highlighted the impact of classroom context, student-teacher relationships, and the impact of state policy at the local level. Participant satisfaction with the program was influenced by the student-teacher relationship. Two groups of students, thrivers and survivors emerged. The former were students who developed strong teacher relationships, which seemed to benefit academic performances as well as peer status. Parents and teachers of these students felt the small group EIP was beneficial. In contrast, the second group, the survivors, had less positive relationships with teachers. These students demonstrated less engagement in the classroom dialogue and expressed little understanding of their learning strengths or weaknesses. Parents of survivors described placement in the EIP self-contained as having a negative impact on their child's achievement and self-esteem.

Book excerpt: As an Elementary Education Major with an interest in Special Education, I have been a participant in many different classroom settings. The interest in this research stemmed from my student teaching experience when I realized there are many elementary education teachers who do not have any background in Special Education and thus do not know how to accommodate their lessons to meet all of their students needs. Encouraged by my own experience, observations, and research I have written this to serve as a guide for teachers to see some different accommodations they can make for students with special needs in the general education classroom setting, specifically in the areas of behavior and literacy. There are many different interventions for each of these topics. I feature here approaches that have shown to be effective according to research conducted to determine their helpfulness. Teachers are responsible for doing all that they can for their students, but there is only so much time in a day. I believe that having all of this information in one place can make it a bit easier for the teachers, a facilitation that will benefit all of the students in their classes. In addition to serving as a guide to teachers, this is document is intended to be helpful for parents as well. In the third chapter, I provide an intervention that can be done in the home. Parents can refer to this piece of writing and use it as a resource to help understand what interventions their child could or should be receiving in the classroom, as well as what their child can be working on in the home.
Download or read book Contemporary Perspectives on Early Childhood Curriculum written by Olivia Saracho and published by IAP. This book was released on 2002-06-01 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the years, educational scholars have proposed different conceptions of the curriculum. It is as if each scholar, researcher, university educator, and practitioner has developed her or his own personal definition. Unfortunately, there is no one single definition that everybody has agreed upon. Table 1 presents a sample of these definitions. A universal definition for curriculum may continue to be elusive and may even change through the years to address changes in the social forces and changes in related school goals. Nonetheless, the approach in curriculum development is consistent. Curriculum developers establish goals, develop experiences, designate content, and evaluate experiences and outcomes. Most curriculum developers consistently use such terms as curriculum planning, curriculum development, curriculum implementation, and curriculum evaluation, and many others to describe curriculum related activities. Unfortunately, without a consistent definition of curriculum, it is difficult for the curriculum developers to identify what it is that needs to be planned, developed, implemented, or evaluated. If curriculum developers rely on the curriculum experts’ definitions, they will find that their definitions identify a product, a program, determine goals and objectives, and learner experiences. However, its heterogeneity may be inspiring if curriculum developers rely on the components of each definition that depict the richness of the field, which in turn, can provide a foundation for contemporary content, concepts, and creativity. A curriculum is an anthology of learning experiences, conceived and arranged based on a program’s educational goals and the community’s social forces. Each curriculum manifests an image of what children "ought to be and become" (Biber, 1984, p. 303) grounded on the awareness of social values and a system that interprets those values into experiences for learners. The concept of curriculum, as a distinctive domain of study within education, arose from the demand to arrange, organize, and translate such awareness into educational programs of study. It integrates the historical study of the goals and content of schooling, analyses of curriculum documents, and analyses of the children’s experiences in school. The first formal curriculum text was published in 1918 (Bobbit, 1918), although in the United States contemporary curriculum study goes back to the early 1890's, when lead committees challenged the form and structure of public schooling. Presently curriculum development is fundamental at all educational levels.

Book excerpt: This volume dedicated to Dorit Ravid, offers 29 new chapters on the multiple facets of spoken and written language learning and usage from a group of illustrious scholars and scientists, focusing on typologically different languages and anchored in a variety of communicative settings. The book encompasses five interrelated yet distinct topics. One set of studies is in the field of developmental psycholinguistics, covering the acquisition of lexical and grammatical categories from toddlerhood to adolescence. A second topic involves a section of studies on the interface of cognition and language, with chapters on processing, production, comprehension, teaching and learning language in usage and in historical perspective. A third topic involves a theoretical and applied perspectives on the acquisition and development of literacy competence, including reading, writing, spelling and text production. A fourth topic brings together an array of studies on social, environmental and clinical diversity in language, highlighting novel issues in multilingualism, immigration, language and literacy disorders. Finally, a section of the volume examines in depth questions in Modern Hebrew linguistics, as the home language and launching base of Dorit Ravid’s research work.
Download or read book Insights Regarding Early Intervention from the Perspective of Mothers and Home visitors written by Joanne Marie Perry and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nine young mothers participating in a two-generation home visiting early intervention program were interviewed over a three-year period beginning in late 1996. One hundred three (116) interviews with these program participants, family members, and the home-visitors who provided services to them were examined with a focus on identifying the needs of the families served by the program and aspects of program implementation that address these needs. This interview study may provide a model for a process of program review and planning. Findings . Recruitment for participation in a randomized assignment research project affects the applicant's motivation for participation. The needs and competencies of the young mothers varied greatly. Not all the mothers needed or wanted what the program had to offer; nor did the mothers need the same level of intensity of support throughout the entire three years. This suggests that early intervention programs need to be able to offer varying levels of participation, and contract with individual mothers from a menu of possible services according to their individual needs and preferences. The menu could include assessment and planning as a key service, intensive home visitation, center or family based child care with parent education and home visiting as an auxiliary service, adult education, and financial management, and decision making skills training. Services may be contracted for particular periods of time. The mothers most valued respectful and authentic interest in them and their children. This in turn heightened their motivation to set and achieve goals and to be positive parents.
