Exceptional Children and Youth

Exceptional Children and Youth uses a straightforward approach and a highly personalized tone to discuss research and teaching practice, emphasizing the effect of disabilities on the lives of individuals, their families, and their teachers. The authors instill respect and empathy for those with disabilities, thereby encouraging preservice teachers to further develop students' potential. By focusing on themes of commonality, collaboration, and "can do" throughout the book, the authors encourage respect, minimize teacher anxiety, and de-emphasize the typical clinical approach in this market.The new edition features reorganized chapters on learning disabilities, behavior disorders, moderate mental retardation, and severe retardation to reflect the sequence in which courses are most often taught. The text includes expanded technology content that explores how teachers can use instructional technologies with special needs children.

â€˜A must-read for all persons who are seriously involved in advocacy for children in their own country or across country boundaries.â€™Children, their care, education and welfare, might seem to be central to the concerns and culture of the Christian churches. But when conversation turns to the rights of children, why should it be that Christian groups often raise objections? Taking the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child as their starting point, the authors go on to study human rights in general, theological concerns talking in terms of rights and to explore how children's rights and human destiny are linked. Resulting from collaboration between a lawyer, specialising in the rights of children, and a Christian theologian, this significant and timely book aims to inform policy development and enrich human relationships by helping people look critically at how Christian theology, and Christians, view the rights of children.
