Book Description
This study investigated how the Department of Education (Education) monitored state compliance with the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) for children age 3-21 years, the extent and nature of noncompliance, and how Education has ensured that noncompliance is resolved once identified. Researchers analyzed Education monitoring documents, interviewed state and federal officials, and visited five state special education offices. Overall, to monitor compliance, Education annually reviews special education data submitted by all states and uses a risk-based approach to identify states in need of further inspection. This monitoring system relies upon collaboration with states, as each state is responsible for assessing and reporting its performance on the provision of special education services. Some of the data used by Education, such as information on how parents are included in their children's education and students' experiences after leaving school, are weak in that they are not uniformly measured or are difficult for states to collect. From 1997-2002, Education identified roughly equal amounts of noncompliance for failing to adequately provide services to students as noncompliance for not adhering to IDEA's procedural regulations. Education found 253 compliance failures in 30 of 31 states visited during this time. This study found 52 percent of compliance failures to be directly related to providing student services. The remaining 48 percent involved failure to meet certain IDEA procedural requirements. Education sought resolution by providing states with technical assistance and requiring them to develop corrective action plans to ensure compliance within 1 year. However, most cases of noncompliance remained open for 2-7 years before closure. On occasion, Education made use of sanctions to address longstanding issues with noncompliance, although resolution has been protracted. States expressed concerns about the standard 1-year timeframe Education imposes for correction, and Education officials acknowledged that it is sometimes not feasible for states to remedy noncompliance and demonstrate effectiveness in that length of time. Appended are: Scope and Methodology; IDEA-Related Sanctions 1994-2003; Comments from the Department of Education; and GAO contacts and staff acknowledgements.

Book Description
Bilingual students with disabilities have an established right to be educated in their most proficient language. However, in practice, many culturally and linguistically diverse students still do not receive the quality of education that they are promised and deserve. Multilingual learners with disabilities must be acknowledged for the assets they bring and engaged in classroom learning that is rigorous and relevant. Bilingual Special Education for the 21st Century: A New Interface addresses the complex intersection of bilingual education and special education with the overlay of culturally and linguistically sustaining practices. This work provides practical solutions to current dilemmas and challenges today’s educators of multilingual learners with disabilities face in the classroom. Covering topics such as dual language education, identification practices, and transition planning, this book is an essential resource for special education experts, faculty and administration of both K-12 and higher education, pre-service teachers, researchers, and academicians.
