Schooling children with Down syndrome toward an understanding of possibility

Special education series

by Kliewer Christopher.

Synopsis

This engrossing volume traces the history of community banishment inflicted on people with Down syndrome, exposes artifacts of this history in certain contemporary school practices, and then, drawing on extensive fieldwork, describes numerous school contexts currently resisting traditions of segregation. Some of the issues addressed include literacy and language, friendship, behavior, and the cultural construction of disability.
