Introduce the strengths and challenges of working with special education students and their families with Kirk/Gallagher/Coleman's EDUCATING EXCEPTIONAL CHILDREN, 15E. Written by luminaries in special education, this edition focuses on students who have disabilities or are gifted and talented. The authors take a strength-based approach to student needs with numerous instructional strategies. Readers explore bioecological factors influencing outcomes; following a collaborative team approach; and using the Multi-Tiered Systems of Support (MTSS) framework to address academic, social, emotional and behavioral needs. A focus on the latest research emphasizes how to use this information. Updates also review the increase in online learning, the importance of "belonging" and strategies to enhance mindfulness in schools. Revisions address genetics, neurology, assistive technology and information processing and the Council for Exceptional Children (CEC) standards. This edition's supplements support in-person, online or hybrid courses.
