Exceptional Children: An Introduction to Special Education, 11th Edition (2018) by William L. Heward, Sheila R. Alber-Morgan, and Moira Konrad is an informative, accessible, and engaging introduction to the ongoing story of special education. Published by Pearson and part of the What's New in Special Education series, this widely adopted text has introduced generations of future teachers to the field.
Special education is an ongoing story of people - of exceptional children, of the families of children with special needs, and of the teachers who work with them. Exceptional Children focuses on 15 experienced teachers who give readers first-person insight into this diverse field, and details step-by-step how special educators use highly effective, research-based practices to promote student achievement in their classrooms.
The 11th Edition includes new information that reflects current professional practices, trends, and research that define the exciting and ever-evolving field of special education - including updates to IDEA compliance, inclusion, co-teaching models, and culturally responsive instruction.
Topics covered: foundations of special education; IDEA and IEP development; collaborating with families and paraprofessionals; learners with intellectual and developmental disabilities; learning disabilities; emotional and behavioral disorders; autism spectrum disorders (ASD); communication disorders; deafness and hard of hearing; blindness and low vision; physical disabilities, health impairments, and traumatic brain injury; attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD); giftedness and talent development; early childhood special education; transition to adulthood; applied behavior analysis (ABA) in classrooms; multi-tiered systems of support (MTSS); and response to intervention (RTI).
Essential for: undergraduate and graduate teacher preparation programs; special education licensure courses; introduction to special education; general education teacher candidates; BCBA coursework; educational psychology programs; school administrators pursuing special education endorsement; and in-service teachers working with diverse learners.
"I was paying $11.99/month for Kindle Unlimited but realized I was renting books, not owning them. Bought this PDF and it's mine forever. Never going back to Kindle."
"Switched from Kindle to these PDFs. Same book, but I actually OWN it now. No monthly fees, no app required. Worth every penny."
"Kindle Unlimited kept raising prices. This is a one-time purchase and the file is permanently on my iPad. Best decision I've made for my reading habit."
"I compared Kindle vs this store. Kindle is cheaper monthly but you don't own anything. Here I paid once and the PDF is mine for life. Highly recommend."
"Left Kindle behind after they removed a book I was reading mid-series. With this PDF, nobody can take it away from me. True ownership feels good."
"Was skeptical about paying $18.95 when Kindle shows $3.99, but then I did the math β Kindle Unlimited is $143/year! This is way better value long term."
"Love that I can read this on any device without installing the Kindle app. The PDF works on my laptop, phone, and tablet seamlessly. So much freedom."
"My Kindle subscription was getting expensive. Switched to buying PDFs here and I'm saving money while actually building a permanent digital library I control."
