Description
Summary:Special education differs from remedial education because the students in these programs lack the intellectual ability to perform in a class that teaches standardized concepts and subjects. The students in these classes may lack social maturity, emotional maturity, physical ability or the analytical skills that are needed to perform in a remedial or a standard classroom environment. Delayed students who have special requirements will need to be in a special education program where the content and delivery is adapted to help meet the needs of each individual student. Because of the Individuals with Disabilities Act, children who fall into the definition of a child who has "unique needs" can receive specially designed instruction at no cost. Teachers who provide special education services in public and private schools must be certified to do so. These professionals take extra coursework on child development, research-based methods of teaching, theory and instructional practice to earn their credential.
