Replacing Cascades with Supported Education.

Snell, Martha E.; Drake, George P., Jr.

Journal of Special Education, v27 n4 p393-409 Win 1994

This paper examines the basic tenets of the 1968 blueprint for change offered by Lloyd Dunn, which outlined a progressive plan to improve special education for students labeled as slow learners and educable mentally retarded. Current extensions of the blueprint are offered along with a rationale for including those students with extensive support needs. (Author/JDD)
