    Unit 14 Assignment: Working With Children With Special Needs

    The ‘Social Model’ states that all children have individual needs but also has strengths, skills and preferences. It provides inclusive environments as a starting point for all children. It looks at the environment as a whole and attitudes towards disability and considers that it might be the ‘problem’ that needs fixing rather than the child. By using this approach, the children who would have been educated separately in a different school would now be educated in mainstream schools. The ‘Medical Model’ sees disability as a burden. They are more concerned whether the child can adapt the environment instead of seeing…

    Ethics Case Study

    Medical laws have been put into place to protect not only the patient, but also the physicians, nurses, and medical office staff. The laws were put into place to ensure that these professionals follow the correct procedures and steps that only qualified persons follow. The definition of practicing medicine has also been clearly explained. Those professionals who do not abide by these set laws are therefore subject to punishment by law (Baxter 2005).…

    Aed 222 Week 1 Nlcb 2001 Principles and Special Education

    The No Child Left Behind act has its pros and cons when it comes to the five core principles including strong accountability, expanded flexibility and control, methods based on scientific research, expanded options for parents, and highly qualified teachers. The pros and cons of the say this because when teaching diverse learners they are dealing with a variety of different learning styles. In turn every student will not respond to the No Child Left Behind principles or methods in the same manner, meaning that it may work for some while it may not work for others. The idea of strong accountability it is relevant to the teachers and the students. The teachers they are held accountable due to the set standards and curriculums that they have to teach and follow in order to meet the goals of the NCLB. Along with this they have to prepare the student for the standardized tests that are put in place to measure the students and the teacher’s progress. This is tricky because if the student fails teachers are held accountable while the students are also held responsible for themselves if they fail. This is when highly qualified teachers cone into effect due to the evaluations of their teaching through how the students perform on the standardized tests. In some ways this may be a good thing, but it can also be really bad too. If the students do good then the teachers look highly qualified but if the students don’t do a good job then the teachers look unqualified or as if they are not meeting the standards when that really may not be the case at all. Although teachers have certain curriculums to follow, they do have expanded flexibility and control regarding tailoring their lesson plans which is a good thing that gives them a little freedom. On the other hand it has its cons too because that in my opinion is about the only leeway that they have to make things their own. This will affect the students because teachers are stuck…

    NAEYC Code Of Ethics

    When working with children, it's important to have guidelines to protect them. It's a good way for educators to remind themselves that they do their jobs to help children.

Both the NEA (National Education Association) and NAEYC (National Association for the Education of Young Children) have come up with their own guidelines of ethical conduct. They have similarities and differences, but they are both crucial to know when going into education.…

    Cec Standards

    In my opinion the movement for CEC Standards was a good one, I feel they are just as important as the regular academia standards. I feel that all the standards are equally important, however standard #9 had an impact on me when reading it. I feel that Professional and Ethical Practice is an important one to have. Ethics is a big part of everyday life and children with exceptional needs should get the ethical standards we all receive. “Special educators are aware of how their own and others attitudes, behaviors, and ways of communicating can influence their practice.” Being a special educator is a practice and we as special educators have to be aware of the impact we and others can have on our children. I also felt standard two was influential to me, the Development and Characteristics of Learners. “Special educators know and demonstrate respect for their students as unique human beings,. Special educators understand the similarities and differences in human development and the characteristics between and among individuals with and without exceptional learning needs (ELN). Moreover, special educators understand how exceptional conditions can interact with the domains of human development and they use this knowledge to respond to the varying abilities and behaviors of individual’s with ELN.” This to me is stating that these individuals are just as human as the rest of us, they just need to be treated in…

    Special Education Teachers

    However with shortage of special education teachers, and an attempt to bridge the gap with a general education teacher could lead to lack of effective instruction practices, peer support, and/or assistive technology for students with disabilities. The inability of a general education teacher to meet the goals of the individual education programs (IEP) of a special education student due to the challenge of balancing it with the general education curriculum for all other students, would create a legal issue due to the violation of the special education student’s rights under the IDEIA. In addition, this also creates an ethical issue for the general education teacher because she is faced with the dilemma of working to meet the goals of the IEP in an inclusion setting under tight time constraints. In the end the special education student may not get the full lenght of services provided in the IEP and the non-special education student may not get full instructions provided in the curriculum because of the problems associated with time management and balancing of the needs of the entire classroom. Moreover, there is a moral component to bridging the gap with general education teachers because special education students are individuals from diverse backgrounds, who require ongoing…

    Ethical Issues In Special Education

    Finally, reliance is an important ethical issue because it is crucial to the future of special education students. Reliance has been pegged as an ethical issue due to the fact that people claim special education programs make students “overly reliant” on a crutch that they may or may not receive in college, or in their jobs. They crutch being the different treatment than other students, that is supposed to help them become successful, and able to function in the real world once these students become adults. Reliance, like all the other ethical issues, can consist of many debates over clashing opinions and…
