Abstract
The focus of this article is to provide teacher education programs with recommendations for meeting the educational needs of students with emotional and behavior disorders (EBD) and learning disabilities (LD) in urban communities. Recommendations include preparing preservice special education teacher educators to effectively implement culturally responsive approaches. The article outlines critical features of teacher education programs that can be modified using culturally responsive approaches to design field experiences and collaboration between schools and teacher education programs to meet the distinctive needs of students in urban environments. Teacher education program leaders can incorporate and use the recommendations to modify programs so that preservice special education teacher educators can be better prepared to be inclusive of all learners and meet their diverse needs.
期刊介绍:
Intervention in School and Clinic is practitioner-oriented and designed to provide practical, research-based ideas to educators who work with students with severe learning disabilities and emotional/behavioral problems. Emphasis is placed on strategies and techniques that can be easily implemented in school or clinic settings and address the multifaceted needs of students with severe LD and emotional/behavioral problems. Specifically, articles should target curricular, instructional, social, behavioral, assessment, and vocational strategies and techniques and have direct application to the classroom setting.
