Special Education 2.0 breaks out of the special-education reform mold. Instead of fixes and tweaks for the current system—that have been tried without success—it dares to propose an innovative, inclusive, second generation approach for all students, general and special education. Its five Directions have the promise to create a dynamic blueprint for a new transformative and optimistic way forward for all students.
You’re invited to join in, start an honest national conversation without the taboos that thwart innovation –think BIG, and dream aloud. Together, let us ask—WHAT IF?—and build a second generation approach for all students.
