    Improving Education: The Promise of Inclusive Schooling

    1/1/01 - Dianne L. Ferguson, Audrey Desjarlais, Gwen Meyer, Equity Alliance at ASU

    The purpose of education is to ensure that every student gains access to knowledge, skills, and information that will prepare them to contribute to America’s communities and workplaces.

For students with disabilities, achieving this common purpose means thinking again about the consequences of special and general education as separate systems, and...

  • Inclusive Education for Equity

    1/1/09 - Equity Alliance at ASU,, Kathleen King

    Addressing Discrimination in School Matters

    1/1/09 - Sullivan, Amanda L., Equity Alliance at ASU

    "Every student has the right to an education free from discrimination that provides high-quality, equitable opportunities to learn. Unfortunately, sometimes individuals or systems may act in ways that violate this right.
