The future course of the field will be shaped by the policy and programmatic responses to several issues, including demographic changes in student populations, a lack of certified special education teachers, criticism in the public media for the rising costs of services, and debates about the preferred philosophy of service delivery for students with disabilities. Additional chapters discuss university-school collaboration, charter schools, disability studies, school violence, disproportionality in placement, male African-American teachers, and ethics. This book has been written out of a context of research and program development activities with public schools over the past decade in one of the largest Colleges of Education in a diverse metropolitan area in the country. The issues selected for analysis and the perspective guiding those analyses grew out of this work and out of a national Delphi study of the views of parents and constituent organizations and leading researchers, teacher educators, and policy makers in Special Education. 410 0$aContemporary studies in social and policy issues in education. 606 $aTeachers of children with disabilities$xTraining of$zUnited States 606 $aStudents with disabilities$xEducation$zUnited States 615 0$aTeachers of children with disabilities$xTraining of 615 0$aStudents with disabilities$xEducation 676 $a371.9/0973 701 $aPaul$b James L$01104582 801 0$bDLC 801 1$bDLC 801 2$bDLC 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910955353703321 996 $aRethinking professional issues in special education$94340844 997 $aUNINA
