Summary

Gargiulo: Special Education in Contemporary Society, Third Edition Offering a rich, people-first approach, Richard Gargiulo's new edition of his acclaimed special education textbook reflects his belief that teachers need more than just academic knowledge about exceptionality-they need an awareness and understanding of the human side of exceptional students and their families. Metcalf: Succeeding in the Inclusive Classroom Ideal for Introduction to Special Education/Introduction to Exceptionalities courses, this supplementary text provides strategies pre-service and in-service teachers can use to apply the principles of Universal Design for Learning (UDL) to their lesson planning. UDL lesson planning considers 'œup front' potential barriers that could limit access to instruction for some learners and helps teachers brainstorm possible solutions before lessons begin. The lessons included in this text are meant as a starting point for general education teachers who have students with special needs in their classrooms and can be adapted for K-12 learners with a wide range of challenges.
