DIFFENTIATING INTEGRATION: SPECIAL EDUCATION IN THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION K. Thomson European Journal of Special Needs Education, vol.17, 2002, p.33-47 In the Soviet Union education of children with special needs was sharply segregated and based on locally developed theories of "defectology". Since the fall of Communism the segregated system has largely remained intact due to financial constraints, the organizational legacy of the Soviet differentiated system, the tenacious ideological legacy of "defectology" and resistance to integration as a Western idea. However, small-scale changes to the special education system at the local level are being made. EDUCATIONAL DEVELOPMENT THROUGH INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATIONS TECHNOLOGY S. Fallows and R. Bhanot

Extractions: What Is a Unit Study? Pick a Topic, Any Topic! Homeschoolers, like all educators, often fall into the easy trap of spouting educational jargon until it becomes almost meaningless, especially to newcomers. We forget, perhaps, that everyone was once a newcomer. The term "unit studies" is an especially slippery fish of a term, because it can mean so many things. It may refer to a relaxed, interest led frolic through a subject, initiated by a child's interest in, for instance, cars. The child reads about cars, draws cars, examines the insides of cars, takes cars apart, measures cars, studies the math and science of cars, bakes and eats car shaped cakes, and builds a model car. The opposite extreme may be the child homeschooled with a traditional approach. His parents pick a unit study out of a book, or perhaps buy a unit study curriculum. The publisher supplies or suggests the materials, and the parent (as teacher) sits with the child, going progressively through the planned unit study. Most often, homeschool families fall somewhere in between these two examples.

Extractions: Myth vs. Fact MYTH: All voucher programs are constitutional. FACT: Sectarian schools account for 85 percent of the total private school enrollment in the United States. These schools serve as arms of religious ministries and integrate religious values and doctrine throughout their curriculum, indoctrinating students on controversial subjects such as abortion, creationism and the role of women in society. Despite these facts, however, the Supreme Court, in June 2002, upheld a voucher program in Cleveland, Ohio. The decision was extremely narrow. It is limited to circumstances in which the non-religious options that are available to students such as through charter and magnet schools predominate over religious options. The Court refused to overrule pre-existing decisions striking down voucher systems where private schools are the only options available to students apart from regular public schools.

Pre-natally through the sixth year there are several distinct stages. They include: intra-uterine, intrapartum (the birth itself), postpartum (birth to 1 month), early infancy (the first six months), late infancy (6-12months), toddler (1 to 3 years), and the pre-school child (3-6 years of age). Children have different needs, depending on where they are within these stages.

Extractions: Associated Press WASHINGTON - The school district in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, had already overspent its special education budget by $1 million when the Supreme Court ruled it had to pay for one-on-one nursing for a student - adding $30,000 a year. The case is really about the federal government creating rules requiring schools to educate children with disabilities, but not sending enough money to ensure they can afford it. Special education is one of the most emotional issues schools face, and one of their fastest-growing costs. States have long fought with local schools and the Education Department over costs. Now Republicans and Democrats in Congress are debating how much the federal government should help. Nearly 6 million children receive special education instruction and services costing $60 billion, about $5 billion of that from the federal government. About $55 billion comes from states and local districts, which follow strict rules stemming from the 1975 federal law covering special education. States get anywhere from 7 percent to 12 percent of their special education money from the federal program. The law allows the federal government to contribute up to 40 percent - or about $11 billion.

Norma Cantu Strikes Again earlier occasions (including testing in ohio and affirmative reason families chooseto enroll disabled children in revision of the federal specialeducation law http://www.edexcellence.net/library/cantu.html
Extractions: While President Clinton calls for 3,000 charter schools by decade's end, his administration's lawyer-activists at the U.S. Education Department are doing all they can to savage these independent public schools of choice, now numbering around 700 nationally. First blood was drawn recently by Norma Cantu, a veteran of the Mexican-American Legal Defense Fund and now head of the Education Department's Office of Civil Rights (OCR). (Cantu's mischief was last exposed in these pages by David Tell on 8/11/97: "Norma Cantu's Cant.") Last month, Cantu's Boston office handed down two precedent-setting and outrageous rulings against the Boston Renaissance Charter School in response to allegations of discrimination by the school against a fifth-grade girl and a first-grade boy with "attention deficit disorder." Both youngsters are African-American. Here are the facts: The Boston Renaissance School, which is managed by the for-profit Edison Project on behalf of the non-profit community group that obtained a charter from the state in 1995, enrolls over a thousand students in grades K-8. It's one of the country's largest and most celebrated charter schools. Three-quarters of its students are minority; 12 percent are disabled.

Extractions: Los Angeles Times , December 26, 2001 For many boys and girls, particularly minorities, special education has become not a road to life but a cul-de-sac where they are stopped before they get the help they need to do as well as they can. Next year, Congress is due for its five-year review of the Individuals With Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), which governs most "special education" in U.S. schools. Special ed touches the lives of 12% of all U.S. children at a total annual cost nearing $60 billion. The shortcomings and complexities of this troubled program make it ripe for reform. IDEA dates back to 1975, when Washington undertook to ensure that disabled youngsters got a "free, appropriate public education." Until then, many school districts had neglected or refused to educate thousands of children with special needs. Over the past quarter-century, thanks in considerable part to IDEA, much has changed for the better. But IDEA also has plenty of problems. To name a few: over-identification of minority students for special education, double standards for student discipline, red tape for charter schools and interference with state and local education reforms. It exempts millions of children and teachers from academic standards, tests and accountability. IDEA needs a top-to-bottom overhaul.
