Download or read book Elim written by Robert P. Swierenga and published by Historical Series of the Refor. This book was released on 2005 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Founded in 1948 by the Dutch Reformed community of Chicago, Elim Christian School was the first within the vaunted Christian Reformed educational system nationwide to provide educational services to those with developmental and physical limitations. It remains the only Reformed residential school in North America for special needs children, and its workshop, Oasis Enterprises, provides occupational training and meaningful employment for nearly two hundred adults after they "aged out" of school. In the past fifty-five years, this unique institution has been an "oasis in the desert of disability" for more than 5,000 persons ages three to sixty-five." "Elim, the first history of the institution, relies on the minutes of the administration and its publications to describe the astounding rise of the school from seven students in an Englewood church basement to the hundreds currently served on a 34-acre campus in Palos Heights, Illinois. While the official records provide the view "from the top," the book keeps a focus on the students and their achievements, which, after all, is the real story. The nearly 200 photographs and illustrations of students and staff bring the story to life. The vital fundraising role and encouragement of the "Women's army" - the Women's Service League, Mothers' Clubs, and Key Ladies, is also told in detail, based on the minutes of the League Board."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Now, as more families like Michael's are affected by a growing number of difficulties ranging from down syndrome to autism to food allergies, the need for church programs and personal paradigm shifts is greater than ever. Working through key Bible passages on brokenness and disability while answering hard questions, Michael offers here helpful principles for believers and their churches.

Download or read book The Overcomers written by Molly Noble Bull and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2011-11-11 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Did you ever try to push a one hundred–pound rock up a hill with nothing but a toothpick? If you can imagine what that might be like, you have some idea how difficult it is for a child with a learning problem to read or spell ten simple words. It takes a huge amount of energy to push a heavy rock up a hill. It takes an equal amount of mental strength for a child with dyslexia to read and spell, and at the end of either of these strenuous activities, both the rock pusher and the child are exhausted. Five published Christian authors with learning disabilities wrote this book from their own experiences. It is their hope that others will be encouraged from reading how they overcame. “An inspiring account of five amazing women authors who demonstrated how creativity and perceptual talents go hand-in-hand with dyslexia and ADD.” —Ronald D. Davis, author of The Gift of Dyslexia: Why Some of the Smartest People Can't Read and How They Can Learn and The Gift of Learning: Proven New Methods for Correcting ADD, Math & Handwriting Problems. “The Overcomers is a must-read for anyone with a learning disability or knows someone who suffers from that problem. These five amazing authors have opened their hearts and shared their stories in a way that puts feet to their faith and calls their readers to do the same. Don’t miss this excellent read!” —Kathi Macias, author of more than thirty books, including Red Ink, the Golden Scrolls Novel of the Year and Carol Award finalist The Overcomers is a finalist in the 2011 Women Of Faith Contest. It is in the top 30 out of 660 entrants. Final contest results will be announced March 31st, 2012.
Download or read book Predictors of Self efficacy of Christian School Teachers Toward Inclusion of Students with Disabilities written by Lisa Halsey Joyner and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this quantitative correlation study was to determine how accurately self-efficacy for inclusion of students with special needs could be predicted from a linear combination of predictor variables (pre-service training in special education; in-service professional development on topics related to special education; years of teaching experience) for general education teachers in Christian schools. When the factors that predict teachers’ self-efficacy for inclusion of students with disabilities (SWD) are understood, school leaders can tailor more effective professional development and training to improve the willingness and effectiveness of teachers to create inclusive school environments. An online survey of teachers’ self-efficacy for inclusion was completed by 139 general education teachers from North Carolina Christian schools; participants also provided information related to their pre-service training, in-service training, and years of experience in education. Self-efficacy for inclusion was measured using the Teachers Efficacy for Inclusive Practices (TEIP) and compared to demographic information provided by the participants. Data was analyzed with a multiple regression to determine the best predictors of teachers’ attitudes toward inclusion. The results indicated no significant correlation between the predictor variables and teachers’ aggregate self-efficacy for inclusion or the subfactors of inclusive instruction, collaboration, and managing disruptive behaviors. Future research should consider a qualitative component for a more comprehensive understanding of how teachers define inclusion and their self-efficacy for inclusion. Also, future researchers should analyze each of the three predictors and the responses to individual items on the instrument separately.
