...debate about whether or not special needs students should be exempt from graduation and exit-level tests. Many believe that testing will place students where they belong in society. Under this belief pattern, is it fair to judge special needs students by these standards? Many parents and educators believe that it is unfair for special needs children to be judged or tested in the same manner as children who do not have special needs. The major concern here is not so much whether or not special needs students should take exit level tests; but rather how special needs students are classified, whether or not the correct accommodations are provided, and if a single indicator is used for assessment. To identify a special needs students capability levels, multiple indicators must be given. These multiple indicators include: tests, observations, psychological reports, student work samples, and parent and teacher interviews. Because it is difficult or almost impossible for educators to determine what level of accommodation is needed for each student, educators must consider giving students exit level tests according to their individual academic level. This must be done on a case-by-case basis. Timothy Bush, a special education teacher at Sanford high school in Delaware, said it best: “The national demand for high standards and accountability is appropriate for all students. But it is unfair not to make the accommodations that will enable students with special needs to demonstrate their abilities”...

...Disability Rights Case Review Jonathan is a tenth grade student with multiple disabilities which include: profound mental disability, spastic quadriplegia, and seizure disorder. Jonathan’s mother approached the high school principal, Debbie Young, for Jonathan’s placement in the high school.

Due to the above factors, Principal Young believes the high school is not the best placement for Jonathan’s needs. Discussion...

...Action along with the pros and cons associated with each act. Americans with Disabilities Act The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) was passed into law in 1990 and prohibits employers and universities from discriminating against individuals with disabilities. The act also requires institutions to make reasonable accommodations at the request of the disabled employee or student. Requests that place "undue hardship" on institutions are exempt from the law; institutions are not legally required to comply. The law states that individuals must inform the institution of all possible means of accommodation; the institution may choose the most convenient and financially feasible option (The U.S. Equal, 2008). Pros of Americans with Disabilities Act The ADA permits disabled individuals to receive an education and obtain employment thereby allowing them to remain independent. Disabled individuals who are allowed to remain in the workforce decreases tax dollars spent monthly disability checks used to support these individuals. The ADA has increased awareness to the struggles of the disabled and it has promoted a need present in this population.

...CANADA-U.S. Business Travel Guide Released February 2013 CANADA-U.S. BUSINESS TRAVEL GUIDE INTRODUCTION Word from Jayson Myers, President & CEO, Canadian Manufacturers & Exporters T he advent of global supply chains has led to significant changes in the way manufacturers do business. In today’s day and age, the business of manufacturing is no longer simply about getting a product out the door — it is rather about providing innovative solutions to customers’ problems. Manufacturers now deliver value to customers by embedding their skills, innovation, financing and logistics solutions in the tangible goods they deliver. To compete and win in today’s environment requires constant interaction between manufacturers and their suppliers, customers, business partners, and services providers. Despite recent advances in information and communications technologies, much business is still conducted face-to-face, and deals are still done with a handshake. Whether it’s engineers working together to develop a new manufacturing process, executives meeting to negotiate a licensing agreement, or industry leaders getting together at a conference to map the future of their sector, creating value requires business people to meet and interact. Given the intensity of Canada’s trade relationship with the United States, this is especially the case between our two countries. Not only are we each other’s largest customer, but our businesses increasingly work together...

...money’s worth which is derived from definite source with some sort of regularity or expected regularity. These definite sources of income are salaries, house property, business or profession, capital gains and any other source. If an income is not derived from any of these sources, it is not taxable under the Income Tax Act, 1961 (hereinafter referred as ‘Act’). For example, if a person finds a purse containing Rs.1000 on road, it is not treated as income since it is not received from any definite source. We have also learnt that scope of total income is determined with reference to residential status of a person i.e. total income of each person is based on his residential status. Once we know what incomes of a person are taxable, then we need to know how to compute total taxable income according to the provisions of Income Tax Act. The present lesson starts with the classification of incomes into various heads. A detailed study of these heads of income is made lesson wise. This lesson is devoted to the first and most important head of income “Salaries”. The lesson is divided into various sections. First we define the concept of salary income i.e. what are the characteristics, which make an income fall under this head. Then, incomes falling under this head are enumerated, followed by the detailed 30 descriptions of income tax provisions regarding three of these incomes. The description of...
