This book celebrates the many talents of special educators and how those talents are utilized throughout all facets of life. It provides an excellent view of the positive dispositions of special educators and can also be utilized by employers seeking to employ special educators who possess these dispositions. .\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book is a great idea! I love the mention of how inclusion is becoming more of a focus than specialized instruction is. Attempting to integrate both together is difficult and at times simply impossible. Response to intervention (RTI) won't ease the situation at all, either. The discussion of the ability to adapt is essential. -- Shane Feltes, junior high teacher of students with emotional\/behavioral disorders, North Greene School District, Illinois\u003cbr\u003eThose who are successful special education teachers have many, many wonderful and unique talents. You do not just decide to become a special education teacher on a whim. The career picks you—either through firsthand experience or, as in my case, just always knowing from a very young age what you wanted to do. Those of us who are special education teachers\/administrators have jumped in with both feet. There is no only going part way. For me, it became a lifelong commitment to see that my students were as successful as possible. -- Lori McNeff, former principal, St. Mary's Grade School, Mt.
