Overview
In The Fundamentals of Special Education, authors Bob Algozzine and Jim Ysseldyke highlight the major concepts in special education, providing readers with a better understanding of the field, from disability categories and statistics to appropriate learning environments.

• What is "special education" exactly, and why do we have it?
• How many students receive special education services and who are they?
• How are students identified for special education services?
• Where are students with disabilities taught?
• What is an Individualized Education Plan (IEP)?
• What roles do general and special education teachers play in addressing the needs of students with disabilities, and how do their responsibilities overlap?
