Irreconcilable Differences? Defining the Rising Conflict between Regular and Special Education.
Meredith, Bruce; Underwood, Julie
Journal of Law and Education, v24 n2 p195-226 Spr 1995
A special-education paradigm looks at students as individuals, substantially involves parents, documents individual student's needs and achievement, and operates under judicial oversight. Regular education is premised upon group learning and instruction, political rather than legal accountability, and a local or statewide power source. (84 references) (MLF)
