Role of Special educator in Early childhood special education/Early interventionLearnwithAnshita
Early childhood special education (ECSE)/Early intervention (EI) services can be defined as providing necessary services such as health, nutrition, & education based on the needs children with developmental delay/disability or at risk for developmental delay/disability between age of 0 & 6/8 & to their family in order to minimise the negative effects influencing children & their families & to maximise the overall quality of life of children & their families.(Sabuncuoglu & Diken, 2010).
Services for the children with disabilities start with the screening ,assessment & referral. After the medical diagnosis, families are directly referred for guidance & research centers who are responsible for organizing & providing special education services in each areas for educational diagnosis so that their children are placed at appropriate educational institutions.
screening can be done by special educators too, they can take help of parents or caregiver who knows child’s development and behaviours. After that they will refer them to the nearest centres for complete assessment of child’s hearing. It will be focuses on determining with accuracy, not just the existence of the hearing difficulty but also details about its nature type and extent.
This presentation provides an overview of the transition planning process for youth with disabilities IEPs. Transition planning is an on-going process that begins at age 14 to prepare students with disabilities for life after high school. It requires planning, skill development, and network support.

Priorities for Equity and Inclusion? Quality in Early Childhood Care and Educ...Young Lives Oxford
Keynote speech by Renu Singh at the British Association of Comparative and International Education conference, 10 Sept 2014.
The importance of early development in shaping children's education outcomes is widely acknowledged. The Dakar Framework for Action reinforced the call for 'expanding and improving comprehensive early childhood care and education, especially for the most vulnerable and disadvantaged children'. Building an enabling policy environment which focuses on equity and equality in allocations and interventions is essential if the rights of every young child are to be promoted.

So who exactly is served in special education?
Exceptional Children
Physical or learning abilities of these children are either above or below the norm and require a specialized program to meet their needsDisability/Impairment
Reduced function or loss of a particular body part or organ
A child with a physical disability is not handicapped unless it impairs educational, personal, social, vocational issues
Handicap
A problem a person with a disability or impairment encounters interacting with the environmentAt-Risk
A child that is not currently identified as having a disability, are considered to have a greater than usual chance of developing a disability.
Also, refers to students who are experiencing learning problems in the regular classroom
People First Language simply means that we should ALWAYS put the person first in our descriptions.IDEA supports People First Language. The term handicapped is replaced with disability.Examples:
Children with disabilities
Students in special education
Students with learning differences, and
Students with autism.
This is an important concept because there is an expectation that we do not categorize students by their disability.
MustUseStudentInstead ofCategory
A child evaluated as having. . .
A specific learning disability (LD)
An emotional disturbance (ED)
Intellectual Disability(ID)
A speech or language impairment (SI)
A visual impairment including blindness (VI)
A hearing impairment including deafness (AI)
An orthopedic impairment (OI)
These are the official labeling categories used for a student with a disability and included next to the category is the acronym used for each of the disability categories.
traumatic brain injury (TBI)
Autism (AI)
other health impairment (OHI)
multiple disability (MI)
deaf-blindness (DB)
non-categorical early childhood (NCEC)

These are the official labeling categories used for a student with a disability and included next to the category is the acronym used for each of the disability categories. In Texas Students are labeled by the time they have completed their fifth year; however in other states in the country they are labeled developmentally delayed but not given a specific disability category until nine years of age.
NCEC: suspected of meeting eligibility criteria for:
autism
emotional disturbance
learning disability
Intellectual Disability
Use of the NCEC code is a local district decision
NCEC students must be suspected of meeting the following criteria in order to be considered ...

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

4. Laws
There has been many laws passed by the
government to better and protect Early
Childhood Special Education over the years. In
the next few slides I’ve highlighted some of the
main ones.
5. The Rehabilitation Act of 1973
● Prohibits employment discrimination against individuals based on
disability by federal contractors and subcontractors.
● This law is enforced by the Employment Standards Administration's
Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) within
the U.S. Department of Labor
● Requires that federal contractors and subcontractors take
affirmative action to recruit, employ, train, and promote qualified
individuals with disabilities.
● The Rehabilitation Act has been amended twice since its inception,
once in 1993 and again in 1998.
6. Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990
(ADA)
● Is a wide-ranging civil rights law that prohibits, under certain
circumstances, discrimination based on disability
● It provides similar protection such as the Civil Rights Act of 1954 which
made discrimination based on sex, age, race, religion illegal.
● Discrimination may include, among other things:
o Limiting or classifying a job applicant or employee in an adverse way
o Denying employment opportunities to people who truly qualify, or not
making reasonable accommodations to the known physical or mental
limitations of disabled employees
o Not advancing employees with disabilities in the business, and/or not
providing needed accommodations in training materials or policies
o The provision of qualified readers or interpreters.
7. The No Child Left Behind Act of 2001
(NCLB)
● The aim of NCLB is to have all students performing at proficient levels in
the two educational cornerstones, reading and mathematics, by the year
2014. While at the same time closing the achievement gaps of students of
different genders or minority groups; students who are English language
learners or who are economically disadvantaged; and students who have a
disability.
● All states will implement statewide systems of testing and accountability for
all public schools and all students in order to provide a picture of how
successfully each school is teaching its established standards.
● To receive federal school funding, states must give these assessments to
all students at select grade levels.
8. Individuals with Disabilities Education Act
of 2004 (IDEA)
● Is a law that ensures services to children with disabilities throughout the
nation.
● It addresses the educational needs of children with disabilities from age 3
to age 18 or 21. In cases that involve 14 specified categories of disability.
● Controls how states and public agencies provide early intervention,
special education and related services to millions of eligible infants,
toddlers, children and youth with disabilities.
● To receive federal school funding, states must give these assessments to
all students at select grade levels.
● The act requires states to provide "highly qualified" teachers to all
students. Each state sets its own standards for what counts as "highly
qualified"
9. Trends
The passing of many different laws over the years have
made a big impact in Early Childhood Special Education.
Parents receive more financial help towards their disabled
children, more teachers are receiving qualified training on
dealing with different types of disabilities, more disabled
children are getting the right help, children with special
education are treated equally and are being less
discriminated, teachers and parents communicate more
which helps with the child’s development and a lot more.
10. Our Job as Educators
Our Job as educators is to make sure the laws are being
followed and Early Childhood Special Education keeps
getting the support it deserves. It is very important children
with special needs receive special care and love at school
and home. Parents and teachers should always stay active
when it comes to communicating the child’s behavior and
changes
