Is Integration of Students with Disabilities Happening? An Analysis of National Data Trends over Time.

Sawyer, Richard J.; And Others

Remedial and Special Education (RASE), v15 n4 p204-15 Jul 1994

This analysis of national program record data since 1977 found that, overall, increases have occurred in placements of students with disabilities within general public schools and within general education classes. Integration patterns, however, have varied substantially across disabilities, with students having sensory impairments showing the most dramatically increased integration. (Author/DB)
