About the Book

Technology, Curriculum and Professional Development highlights some important considerations for making technology implementation meaningful and enduring for students with disabilities. Implementing technologies or new curricula creates intricate complexities that educators in both general and special education have seldom anticipated, much less managed well. John Woodward and Larry Cuban examine what researchers have learned about instructional interventions for students with disabilities. While the majority of the chapters focus on innovative uses of technology, there is also careful consideration of pedagogical, curricular, and classroom organizational approaches. The authors: provide a critical examination of the efforts made; detail the successes, failures, and enduring dilemmas that have been faced in validating research-based strategies for students with disabilities; suggest important design considerations for researchers and developers; provide ideas for giving research a more powerful voice by expanding its vocabulary of real world implementation
