...Laws, Procedures and Policies Regarding Disciplining Special Education Students Holly Witherwax Prairie View A&M University Introduction Discipline within a school setting is of prime importance, and ensures that learning activities progress without major hitches. This is true in school settings that enroll students without disabilities, as well as schools for students with special needs. Learning institutions that enroll both disabled students and those not disabled are also tasked with ensuring that discipline amongst the students is maintained across the board. Therefore, the challenge for administrators in schools that have incorporated special education students is that of ensuring that in disciplining special education students; they act within the law, they act in an unprejudiced manner (vis-à-vis disciplining normal students) and finally that the punishment takes cognizance of the status of the student as a special education student. Federal Law and Disciplining Special Education Students There are various laws that govern the disciplining of special education students in federally supported schools in K-12 education. The most relevant law as regards disciplining special education students is the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) 1990 (reauthorized in 1997). The provisions of IDEA state that unless a special needs student has committed punishable acts that require drastic measures such as the student being permanently transferred from...

However, these students need funds to meet their daily requirements which can only be achieved through financial aid programs. According to the handbook for Financial Aid Officers, the concept of financial aid started long ago where it involved the students getting assistance from a benefactor. The assistance included tuition fees and borrowing books and a room to study. Financial aid has since then developed to date where it...

...pass laws revoking the driver’s licenses of students under 18 if they miss too much school or get low grades. These laws are trying to discourage high-school dropouts, but do they make the problem better or worse? In my opinion, these laws do not fix the problem of high-school dropouts, but are instead making the problem worse. One reason No pass/no drive laws is that they are putting into place a punishment without offering help to avoid this punishment . According to Yael Kidron, a senior researcher for the National High School Center,”The problem with ‘No Pass/No Drive’ laws is that they do nothing about the reasons that students do not go to school in the first place. These laws do not help homeless students find a place to live, for instance. They also do not offer tutoring for struggling students (5).” This means...

... | The No Child Left Behind Act Outline “The No Child Left Behind Act” is the most recent reauthorization of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) of 1965. This law holds the states as well as the schools accountable for the academic achievements of the students as funds are being supplied to the states for this purpose. This law requires quality teaching by highly qualified teachers and yearly assessment of student progress in English, mathematics and science skills. The progress of the students needs to be reported in terms of percentage of students scoring at the ‘proficient’ or higher level. Different subgroups categories need also report the progress annually. A standardized test method has been chosen in each state and based on the scores in that test the performance level of the students and their schools is judged. This law acquired huge range of controversy since its implementation. Some advocates its effectiveness in ensuring equalization in the system of education and a certain level of proficiency in all students. They argue that schools must be accountable for the performance of their students. But the law has several loopholes, which provoke the schools to get involved in some kinds of malpractice. The future of students may also be affected by more and more...

...a crisis. These supporters believe gun laws only restrict law abiding citizens from their 2nd amendment rights with minimal effect on criminal gun owners. However; many anti-gun activists believe that more guns are not the answer to a gun problem and a Campus Carry law may increase accidental discharges, violence, as well as youth suicides. The University of Texas massacre fifty years ago is a prime example of this heated issue on both sides of the gun debate. On August 1, 1966, Charles Joseph Whitman climbed the University of Texas Tower, in Austin, and in a span of 96 minutes fired 150 high-powered rounds of ammunition down into unsuspecting university students and faculty. Those nearby heard "strange noises" and thought nothing of it until they saw the bodies and blood on the sidewalks. The shooter killed and wounded nearly 50 people that day (Lavergne). A similar occurrence happened on a Monday morning April 2007, on the campus of Virginia...

...Discovering the Relationship Between the Law and Your School Marchelle Smith SPE-350 Special Education Litigation and Law November 2, 2013 Discovering the Relationship Between the Law and Your School The legal ramifications of special education started in the late 1960’s that was derived from the discrimination and segregation of children who had disabilities and handicaps. Learning how special education has changed over the last century and decade has been very specific. Special education children were not educated in the early 1900’s, they were just locked away or kept at home because some thought they were not able to be educated. The acts and laws that have been enacted to give children with special education a chance to live a normal life has really changed the way we view education for these children today. When Congress adopted the Education for All Handicapped Children Act' (EAHCA) in 1975 and mandated the education of all children with disabilities, a key supporter of the bill noted that "[n]o one really knows what a learning disability is (Colker, 2012). When the Education for All Handicapped Children Act in 1975 passed it began to fund states to educate special needs students in regular schools, but in separate classrooms. The courts and laws have changed to included special needs children in the public education in the LE (least restrictive) setting. In all that I have learned and in talking with the Bonnie Walston the Director of Special Education in my...

...GENERAL COMMENTS The 2012 Legal Studies examination was challenging for many students. Many common misunderstandings about various aspects of the legal system were evident in responses to the examination. Few students were able to demonstrate knowledge of a directions hearing. Incorrect cases were used as examples of the High Court protecting rights. In Question 3a. few students correctly identified that the Court of Appeal was higher than the Supreme Court (Trial Division) in the court hierarchy. Many students had a limited understanding of the operation of section 109 of the Constitution and struggled to provide a thorough response to Question 3b. Students should become familiar with the study design throughout the year. Students are expected to demonstrate the ability to discuss, explain and evaluate. Students’ ability to evaluate requires more attention. Students should not rely on rote-learned or pre-prepared answers as they will rarely address the question. Time management was an issue in this examination, with many students writing lengthy responses to questions that only required a shorter response, therefore not allowing enough time for longer questions. A shorter question that asks for an outline (for example, Question 1a.) requires no more than one or two sentences in response. Good examination technique is essential and students should practise their technique throughout the year. If students continue their answers at the back of the booklet, they should indicate that...

...Governor Brown recently passed the Assembly Bill No.1989; otherwise known as the “Sip-and-Spit” bill. This law will take effect on January 1, 2015 allows college students between the ages of 18 and 21 who are enrolled in a wine-making or beer-brewing course to be able to drink alcohol and spit it out afterwards. There is existing law that forbids a person under 21 years old to have alcohol but this law would exempt specific students within California’s public institutions who are enrolled in a viticulture or enology program to fully experience what they have made as part of their curriculum. The main concern opposing this bill is that minors under 21 are not allowed to consume alcohol and by allowing students to do so at an earlier age may encourage underage drinking. Despite the concerns, this law received wide recognition among supporters such as the California Association of Winegrape Growers, California Craft Brewers Association, Family Winemakers of California, University of California and California State University. This bill has also been approved by the faculty in California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo to align with our motto of “Learn by Doing”. Cal Poly and UC Davis are major supporters behind this law simply because of this will allow students to have the same educational opportunities as students from others states (that exempt students from the legal-age statutes) and compete in the thriving wine and beer industries. In fact, there are no committees...

...10/18/11 Joseph Becker The steps to becoming an Attorney Today, there are more people in law school than there are actual practicing attorneys. The steps to becoming an attorney are rigorous. When a person decides he or she wants to become an attorney, a process starts long before one ever enters law school. The first unofficial step towards a career in practicing law begins with ones prep work in high school. Academic performance in high school will generally determine how well a student will perform in college classes. The second unofficial step is to determine what university or college to attend. While in college, it is imperative that one does well, the course of study is not important. What one should focus on while in college are the skills that will be most helpful in the legal profession. Developing critical thinking and analytical skills, research skills, and professional writing skills are essential tools for success in the future. Obtaining an undergraduate degree is the first major step toward a career in the legal profession. After graduating from college, one should research the different law schools, and select the school that is best suited for one’s overall success. Grades and overall GPA while at the undergraduate level is one-half of the factors used to determine ones acceptance to law school. The other half is ones score on the LSAT. LSAT The LSAT is the standardized Law School Admission Test. The test is comprised five thirty-five minute segments designed...

...drive, determination and ambitions of traditional students. Students living with disabilities are just as capable of learning and retaining information just like traditional students in the classroom. In today’s society, there are an abundance of laws and regulations that are in place to protect and educate individuals with disabilities. However, the idea of educating individuals with disabilities was not always a positive and fair thought in the United States. Throughout history, the laws and regulations for students with disabilities have been created to establish equality and opportunity for educational advancement. Some of the laws and regulations include the creation of the Education for Handicapped Act (EHA), the Individual with Disability Education Act (IDEA), and legislation to have teachers trained to work with students who are “mental challenged” and deaf. Individuals with disabilities have the same passion, drive, determination and ambitions of traditional students. Students living with disabilities are just as capable of learning and retaining information just like traditional students in the classroom. In today’s society, there are an abundance of laws and regulations that are in place to protect and educate individuals with disabilities. However, the idea of educating individuals with disabilities was not always a positive and fair thought in the United States.

...Impact of stress on students learning Stress is any situation that evokes negative thoughts and feelings in a person. The same situation is not evocative or stressful for all people, and all people do not experience the same negative thoughts and feelings when stressed. One model that is useful in understanding stress among students is the person-environmental model. According to one variation of this model, stressful events can be appraised by an individual as "challenging" or "threatening". When students appraise their education as a challenge, stress can bring them a sense of competence and an increased capacity to learn. When education is seen as a threat, however, stress can elicit feelings of helplessness and a foreboding sense of loss. A critical issue concerning stress among students is its effect on learning. The Yerkes-Dodson law (1908) postulates that individuals under low and high stress learn the least and that those under moderate stress learn the most. A field study and laboratory tests support the notion that excessive stress is harmful to students' performance. Mechanisms that explain why students perform badly under stress include "hypervigilance" (excessive alertness to a stressful situation resulting in panic--for example, over studying for an exam) and "premature closure" (quickly choosing a solution to end a stressful situation--for example, rushing through an exam). WHAT IS STRESSFUL FOR UNDERGRADUATES? Students react to college in a variety...
