Preparation + Inspiration = Success!

 

Prepare and inspire future teachers to ADAPT to the needs of all their students!  Using the research-validated A-D-A-P-T model as an instructional guide, problem-solving approach and mnemonic, this new text clearly promotes the thoughtful practices and adaptations which have been proven as the most effective means to teach hard-to-reach students.  It inspires classroom teachers to want to meet the challenges of students with disabilities and other learning challenges in their classroom and then gives them the tools to do it confidently.  

PREPARE

  • ADAPT in Action is an illustrative section integrated directly within the text discussion, applying the ADAPT framework to the student and teacher introduced in the Opening Challenge case studies. In these features, the teacher “thinks out loud” using the ADAPT framework, allowing students to think through each problem-solving step with her or him… pp. 209-210, 293, 352-353, 543
  • ADAPT Framework boxes provide a helpful summary chart that applies the ADAPT model to practical, frequently encountered teaching and learning topics… pp. 211, 316, 363, 403, 494

INSPIRE

  • Making a Difference features are first-person essays written by classroom teachers, special educators, and parents that offer their realistic insights and experiences about the impact of inclusive settings on the success of students with disabilities and other special learning needs and their families... pp. 31, 97, 138, 520-521

ADDITIONAL FEATURES

  • Opening Challenge begins each chapter with a case study illustrating a teaching challenge, which is revisited throughout the chapter, providing students with a consistent situation in which to apply the ADAPT model… pp. 41, 83, 441-442, 535-536
  • What Works features present key research-to-practice findings or interesting, classroom-based statistics that are relevant to topics within each chapter… pp. 221, 315, 372, 447, 490
  • Working Together features provide practical advice for how an idea or concept can be taught using a collaborative approach involving other school professionals and/or family members… pp. 195, 233, 282, 317
  • Instructional Activities, included in each of the “content area” chapters (10-13), present sample lessons for teaching skills in each area. Each activity indicates the instructional objective, instructional content, instructional materials, a means to deliver the instruction, and methods tomonitor progress… pp. 406, 427, 450, 461, 498, 545
  • Considering Diversity features highlight a specific idea from a cultural or linguistic perspective to help readers see examples of how to consider factors of diversity as they relate to academic instruction and management… pp. 178, 212, 292, 432
  • Tech Notes provide readers with information about assistive and instructional technologies that can be employed with students that have learning and behavior problems. Examples from classrooms are used to show practical applications…pp. 172, 327, 377, 451
  • CEC and INTASC Standards are correlated to each chapter in end-of-chapter charts to facilitate student understanding of the standards and principals that must be mastered by all beginning inclusive educators… pp. 79-80, 127-128, 161-162, 252-253
  • MyLabSchool Activities conclude each chapter with an activity using an asset contained on the online resource, MyLabSchool, with corresponding questions for follow up and further exploration… pp. 39, 438-439, 533, 578-579

From Students:

 “Teaching Students with Special Needs in Inclusive Classrooms sets you up for success.  It reads like a book rather than a text book. The information flows from page to page. It kept my attention longer than my current textbook.” 

Jordan Seitz, Northern Michigan University

 

 “I truly felt that the ADAPT in Action and ADAPT Framework features was helpful. ADAPT enabled me to picture what was described in the scenarios so that I personally felt faced with the challenge.  I will hold onto this book because I feel it holds a lot of information that will be useful to me as a future teacher.  I can see myself looking back through the book to find strategies.” 

Jessa Dawn Maraccini, Northern Michigan University

Learn how to ADAPT to the needs of all your students!

 

Using the research-validated A-D-A-P-T model as a mnemonic, problem-solving approach, and an instructional guide, this new text clearly promotes the thoughtful practices and adaptations that have been proven as the most effective means to teach hard-to-reach students. 

 

Features designed to help you teach all your students:

  • Opening Challenge.  Each chapter begins with a case study illustrating a teaching challenge, which is then revisited throughout the chapter, to demonstrate how theory applies to real situations.
  • ADAPT in Action.  Integrated directly within the text discussion, this illustrative feature applies the ADAPT Framework to the student and teacher introduced in the Opening Challenge scenarios.  In this feature, the teacher “thinks out loud” using the ADAPT Framework, allowing readers to follow the problem-solving steps as they are applied by the teacher.
  • ADAPT Framework.  This feature provides a helpful summary chart that applies the ADAPT model to practical, oft-encountered teaching and learning topics.  For ease of reference, the ADAPT Framework is also included on the bookmark attached to the back cover.
  • Making a Difference.  A collection of first-person essays written by classroom teachers, special educators, and parents, these offer realistic insights and positive experiences about the impact of inclusive settings on the success of students with disabilities and other special learning needs, and their families.
  • Working Together.  Provides practical advice for how an idea or concept can be taught using a collaborative approach involving other school professionals and/or family members.
  • What Works.  Presents key research-to-practice findings or interesting, classroom-based statistics that are relevant to topics within each chapter.
  • Considering Diversity.  Highlights a specific idea from a cultural or linguistic perspective, displaying ways to consider factors of diversity as they relate to academic instruction and management.
  • Tech Notes.  This feature provides readers with information about assistive and instructional technologies that can be employed with students that have learning and behavior problems. Examples from classrooms are used to show practical applications.
  • CEC, INTASC, and Praxis II Standards.  INTASC Core Principles, CEC Knowledge and Skill Core Standards, and Praxis II Core Content Knowledge standards are correlated to each chapter in end-of-chapter charts to relate concepts presented in the text to professional standards.
