About this institute . . .
On April 13, 2004, the Council for Exceptional Children (CEC) and
the National Center on Secondary Education and Transition (NCSET)
co-sponsored a Capacity Building Institute on School-Based Strategies
for Supporting Student Development of Self-Determination Skills
in the Context of Leadership and Standards-Based Reform to
present some of the latest developments in the field of secondary
education and transition. The day included reflective dialogue around:
- The knowledge base concerning self-determination and its application
to students with disabilities;
- Large-scale implementation of self-determination; and
- Assessing student self-determination skills, meaningfully involving
students in the IEP process, and developing a self-determination
curriculum that is responsive to cultural diversity.
Our intention for the workshop was to provide practical, useful
information that had meaningful application in people’s daily
work.
In the following proceedings you will find the Institute agenda,
a summary of the Institute, and the speakers’ biographical
information.
David R. Johnson, Director
