Learners with severe disabilities frequently encounter two problems: they have difficulty in the classroom giving and receiving responses appropriate to their needs, and they are confronted by instructors and aides whose insufficient expertise and discomfort causes negative classroom experiences for all involved. Writing for both in-service and pre-service teachers, Downing (special education, California State U., Northridge) provides strategies they can use to develop confidence in their skills as assessors of communication skills and needs and providers of instruction geared toward the needs of learners. She and her contributors give systematic advice about preparing a good learning environment, teaching in an inclusive classroom, meeting students where they are in their communication, and working in teams to bridge gaps in knowledge and experience.
