Unsilenced A Teacher’s Year of Battles, Breakthroughs, and Life-Changing Lessons at Belchertown State School

NEW

By Howard C. Shane, Ph.D. (Boston Children’s Hospital, Harvard Medical School) For future educators and other practitioners getting ready to work with people who have disabilities, learning the history of our attitudes and actions regarding disability is a vital part of professional preparation. That’s why this important and illuminating new book should be part of every recommended reading list for higher education courses on disability.

ORDER EXAM COPY “The 1970s brought about change in the way American society treated human beings who were viewed as ‘deficient’ because of the difference in their physical or intellectual abilities . . . in his storytelling, [Shane] allows us to remember the people who endured those experiences. When educators think inclusion in schools is not important, they need to read this book to understand WHY it is a must.” —Carol Quirk, Ed.D., Chief Executive Officer, Maryland Coalition for Inclusive Education, Inc. (MCIE)

The year is 1969, and fresh-out-of-college smart-aleck Howard Shane has just landed his first teaching job—at Belchertown State School, a bleak institution where people with disabilities endure endless days of silence, tedium, and neglect. Howard is stunned by the conditions at Belchertown and the challenges of his new job, but as he gets to know his diverse, endearing, and intelligent students, he becomes consumed with a mission: to unlock their communication skills and help them reach their full potential. Pitting his youthful idealism and passion against the rigidity of a rulebound administrator, Howard battles his way to small joys and victories with his students—and, along the way, learns just as much as he teaches. A stirring and spellbinding memoir from internationally renowned AAC expert Howard Shane (Boston Children’s Hospital, Harvard Medical School), Unsilenced is a candid look at a pivotal era in disability history and a deeply personal account of how all human beings can flourish when we care for each other and fight for change. Eye-opening and unforgettable, this book is essential supplementary reading for a wide range of future professionals as they prepare to work with children and adults with disabilities.

“Measures like BESA are critically needed to comprehensively examine the language development of bilingual preschoolers.” —Sandra Barrueco, The Catholic University of America

ORDER EXAM COPY HOW BESA WORKS Through a combination of subtests for students and surveys for teachers and parents, BESA reveals the big picture of a young bilingual child’s language development. BESA includes: 3 subtests (in both English and Spanish) that address the key domains of morphosyntax, semantics, and phonology. 2 questionnaires: the Bilingual Input Output Survey (BIOS) and the Inventory to Assess Language Knowledge (ITALK) Pragmatic activity used to establish rapport with the child and give clinicians an idea of how interactive the child will be during the assessment.

When a young bilingual child experiences language difficulties, it can be hard to tell if those challenges are due to a disorder or just limited exposure to the English language. Introduce tomorrow’s clinicians to BESA: the valid, reliable assessment that specifically responds to the needs of young Spanish-English bilingual children. For use with children ages 4 through 6 years who have varying degrees of bilingualism, the Bilingual English–Spanish Assessment (BESA) was developed to •

Identify phonological and/or language impairment in bilingual children and English language learners using a standardized protocol

•

Differentiate between a delay in English language acquisition and a true language disorder

•

Document children’s speech and language strengths and needs

•

Monitor children’s progress in both languages and use the information to make decisions about intervention

BESA BENEFITS: LEARN MORE: www.brookespublishing.com/besa

TILLS™ Practice Kit for use with the Test of Integrated Language and Literacy Skills™ By Nickola Wolf Nelson, Ph.D., Elena Plante, Ph.D., Nancy Helm-Estabrooks, Sc.D., and Gillian Hotz, Ph.D. These convenient Practice Kits include the materials needed for training and practice sessions with the Test of Integrated Language & Literacy Skills™ (TILLS™), a test valid and reliable for assessing oral and written language skills in students ages 6–18 years. The TILLSTM Practice Kit gives you and your trainees access to essential materials for learning about TILLS and, in the process, about standardized testing in general. The TILLS Practice Kits are ideal for use in preservice higher education courses and inservice trainings. They can help you introduce TILLS to aspiring or experienced professionals—and give them the practice they need to use TILLS and perform individualized assessment with confidence in future work settings. THE TILLS PRACTICE KITS ARE USED TO: •

Give trainees a complete overview of TILLS. Introduce the TILLS subtests and the three purposes of the assessment: identifying language/literacy disorders, documenting relative strengths and weaknesses, and tracking changes over time.

•

Familiarize trainees with the 15 TILLS subtests. With the included Examiner’s Practice Workbook, TILLS trainees will work through practice exercises for each subtest that prepare them for successful administration of the TILLS and other standardized tests.

•

Provide concrete examples of standardized testing principles. Beyond testing with TILLS, the materials of the Practice Kit can be used to emphasize assessment principles in general, such as using start rules, establishing basals and ceilings, and using standardized instruction and scoring procedures with fidelity.

•

Provide scoring practice. Using the Examiner’s Practice Workbook and downloadable audio files, TILLS trainees will practice scoring and interpreting all subtests, with extra instructional material and practice examples for the Written Expression subtest.

ORDER EXAM COPY KIT COMPONENTS Note: Trainees each should purchase a Practice Kit for use in their coursework or TILLS training session. Instructors should have their own Practice Kit, and they may request a desk copy of the Examiner’s Manual (as it is not included in the Practice Kit). Examiner’s Practice Workbook: More than 100 pages of exercises on subtest administration, scoring TILLS, and interpreting results, plus a tutorial to help you master T-unit division. Practice Kit Downloads: The audio files and normative data tables needed to complete the scoring of the exercises in the Examiner’s Practice Workbook (downloaded with a special code that is provided to the purchaser). Examiner Record Form (pack of 3): Two forms to work through the exercises in the Workbook for students of different ages, plus an extra copy of the form for additional practice. Quick Start Guide: A laminated trifold quick-reference guide to administration and scoring, perfect to take with you when using TILLS on the job and as a quick reference for trainees.

With this thorough introduction to a landmark language and literacy assessment, pre- and inservice professionals will be ready to use TILLS to enhance their future work in schools, clinics, and private practice. US$49.95 | Stock #: 51981 | 2016 | Shrink-wrapped | ISBN 978-1-68125-198-1
