Pearson Prentice Hall is like Luther Vandross, U2, and Stevie Wonder. They produce excellence so consistently so often that it gets kinda boring…lol.
I’ve run out of cliches for Pearson. Just know that you need any other Special Education book if you just want the overall basics. Everyone, this book is super dense for about 600 pages!
The most resiliant reason Pearson is THE best: they are superb for preparing for PRAXIS tests. This book has a comprehensive alignment between PRAXIS Standards, INTASC Principles, and CEC Standards.
I’m speechless.

I have reflected on this book for many years in my reasearch for special education training. The frameworks have been an asset in getting the framework for teaching and sharing with colleagues ways to model research based practices for exceptional learners in any school environment. The author’s are well-known in the reserach community.”I reflect on this book often for answers!” Carol Swindell,EdS, Inclusvie Special Education Teacher and Doctoral Student.
