Connecting Theory and Practice for the Creation of Inclusive Learning Environments

Produktbeschreibung

This practical and action-oriented book focuses on addressing the educational needs of twice-exceptional students in higher education.

Drawing on the experiences of educators, this book discusses various challenges academic teachers face in meeting the needs of these students while presenting practical strategies that can be easily implemented in colleges and universities. Chapters not only provide a comprehensive overview of the latest research and findings in special and inclusive education, but also feature applications of the theoretical concepts and models discussed to provide interventions and techniques that can be used by educators and stakeholders in the education system.
