Book excerpt: The purpose of this document is to provide a historical perspective of the evolution of special education in Iowa through the voices of the people who created the system of support for individuals with disabilities. In addition to the interviews, extensive historical literature reviews were conducted. One hundred and thirty individuals were interviewed across three years. The participants ranged from those involved in special education in the 1950s to people currently practicing, and from those serving children from birth to those providing special education support to graduating seniors or students aging out of special education services. The individuals were parents of children with disabilities, special and general education teachers, school psychologists, school social workers, special education consultants, occupational therapists, physical therapists, speech language pathologists, early childhood social workers and consultants, school administrators, attorneys for parents and school districts, and many more. This documents includes a number of tables and graphs regarding student population changes over time, state and federal legislative efforts that changed practices, legal principles and the implications for funding and services, progress monitoring data, and race/ethnicity percentages across time. The document traces the history of special education from before the 1960s, through each decade from 1960 to the present. Each decade is introduced by providing a context of what was occurring at the world, national, and state level in current events, civil rights, and special education. Each decade is then, in turn, concluded by reflecting on advances in the disability awareness in that decade. Between the beginning and ending of each decade are the important advocacy, legislative, and improved practice events of that time period. This is brought alive through the stories of those that advocated and provided services for individuals with disabilities. The results revealed through interviewing the people who had lived the adventure, and who had created the future, the incredible story of developing services for individuals with special education needs. The evolution of special education in Iowa is the story of people who exhibited, and in many cases are still demonstrating, a sustained passion for helping others improve the quality of life for individuals with disabilities and their families. Educators' benefit from understanding the history of the development of special education supports and services in the past to be better prepared to enhance services in the future. Appendices include: (1) Participants in Conversations; and (2) Image Credits.

Book excerpt: An historical account of the development of special education services in Iowa describes the treatment of individuals with disabilities for the past 150 years. Primary sources were used to document the legislation and historical events that have formed the foundation of contemporary special education services in Iowa. There is currently no available literature related to the care and education of individuals with disabilities in Iowa during the 20th century. In order to improve the current special education services, we need to understand how these services have evolved, whom they have impacted, and how we can learn from the past. The first chapter describes the purpose and methodology and defines key concepts. The second chapter describes the early beginnings of awareness of individuals with disabilities in Iowa. The earliest forms of social legislation for individuals with disabilities are discussed. Chapter three touches on the segregation and confinement that have impacted educational opportunities for children with disabilities in Iowa.

The systems approach to special education practices has evolved from a historical model of diagnoses and cures to the biological and ecological models, integrating technology as the driving force in implementing curriculum, instruction, and assessment.
