Abstract:
Children with special education needs possess unique learning characteristics which may inhibit their effective learning in mainstream, general education classes. Special education practices are therefore designed to address the educational needs of students with disabilities through various strategies including thorough assessments of students’ characteristics, individualized curriculum planning, and provision of essential services and resources to maximize learning. Although there is extensive research on special education in developed countries like the United States of America (USA), liter

Abstract:
Even though the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons With Disabilities (UN-CRPD) 2006 has been in existence for the last 10 years, the Government of Botswana has not ratified the convention. As a result, individuals with disabilities (IWDs) fail to access services and are at the mercy of the service providers. This qualitative study involved in-depth interviews with 30 IWDs about their experiences related to disability rights. Analysis of the data indicated that IWDs face several challenges in exercising their basic rights; these challenges being (a) stigmatization, (b) infrastru

Down syndrome was the earliest diagnosed disability, the average age of suspicion being two weeks and of diagnosis four weeks.

Children and youth with autism often present special challenges to the educational system. Issues related to these challenges are reflected in court cases involving these students and those charged with providing services. Much of the litigation of the past few years has been related to appropriate educational placement, extended school year services, the use of aversive contingencies to central aberrant behavior, and the use of specific forms of augmentative communication (i.e., facilitated communication).
