SPED 4/53050
INSTRUCTOR: BRIAN FRIEDT
Week eleven:
Service delivery
2. Special education
Special education is a service, not a place
A student with a learning disability might need to preview
vocabulary before entering a new unit in a science class.
That preview is a service that could be provided in a variety of
places.
A student with an emotional or behavioral disorder might need
a token economy to maintain school-appropriate behavior.
The token economy is a service that could be provided in a variety
of settings.
A student with a cognitive disability might need modified
instruction
The modified instruction is a service that could be provided in a
variety of settings.
3. Least Restrictive Environment
IEP teams have to make decisions about placement.
That decision driven, at least in part, by LRE:
“To the maximum extent appropriate, children with disabilities...are educated with children
who are not disabled, and special classes, separate schooling, or other removal of children
with disabilities from the regular educational environment occurs only when the nature or
severity of the disability of a child is such that education in regular classes with the use of
supplementary aids and services cannot be achieved satisfactorily.”
This exists concurrently with the federal mandate to
provide FAPE
7. Self-contained classroom
Support of general education curriculum
Skill based
Content based
Provision of alternate curriculum
Small group
Higher instructional intensity
(Perhaps) more flexibility in service options
8. General education classroom
With co-teaching
Without co-teaching
Direct access to general education curriculum
(Perhaps) less flexibility in service options
