Administrator's Handbook on Integrating America's Mildly Handicapped Students. Special Education in Transition 3.
Talley, Ronda C., Ed.; Burnette, Jane, Ed.
The handbook discusses administrative strategies found successful in fostering the integration of mildly handicapped students in five states' school systems (California, Kansas, Massachusets, Minnesota, and Texas). In "Administrative Systems for Service Delivery," T. Oliver describes approaches to streamline referral to placement systems, help manage increased workloads (including the use of computers), and provide models for planning and resource allocation. G. Shellem ("Community Involvement") describes ways in which the schools can cooperate with community agencies and resources through interagency agreements and contractual arrangements. Strategies to strengthen "Communication" are considered by S. Raimondi, including internal school communications and use of the public media. R. Talley ("Personnel Utilization") presents examples of new or modified staff roles and describes team teaching strategies along with innovative ways to use paraprofessionals. The final topic, "Staff Development," by S. Elting covers planning for inservice, job embedded staff development, and job related staff development. (CL)
