Pearson eText is a simple-to-use, mobile-optimized, personalized reading experience available within MyLab Education. It lets students highlight and take notes, all in one place – even when offline. Seamlessly integrated videos and other rich media engage students and give them access to the help they need, when they need it. Educators can easily customize the table of contents and share their own notes with students so they see the connection between their eText and what they learn in class.

Empower each learner: Each student learns at a different pace. Personalized learning pinpoints the precise areas where each student needs practice, giving all students the support they need — when and where they need it — to be successful.

Embedded videos in each chapter provide illustrations of special education principles or concepts in action. These video examples show students, teachers, and families working in classrooms and/or providing their perspectives about real life situations.
Self-check quizzes in each chapter help assess how well learners have mastered the content. The self-checks are made up of self-grading multiple-choice items that not only provide feedback on whether questions are answered correctly or incorrectly, but also provide rationales for both correct and incorrect answers.
Application Exercises are built around the scenarios that open each chapter, describing the experiences of elementary, middle school, and high school students as they relate to the topics discussed in each chapter. In the Back to the Cases feature at the end of each chapter, readers are challenged to apply what they have learned to the students they met at the beginning of the chapter. The questions in these exercises are usually constructed-response. Once learners provide their own answers to the questions, they receive feedback in the form of model answers written by experts.

Deliver trusted content: You deserve teaching materials that meet your own high standards for your course. That’s why we partner with highly respected authors to develop interactive content and course-specific resources that you can trust — and that keep your students engaged.

IRIS Center Resource links provide readers access to The IRIS Center at Vanderbilt University, founded by the U.S. Department of Education’s Office of Special Education Programs (OSEP), which develops training enhancements material for pre-service and in-service teachers. The Center works with experts from across the country to create challenge-based interactive modules, case study units, and podcasts that provide research-validated information about working with students in inclusive settings. This content has been integrated throughout the text, where appropriate.

Improve student results: When you teach with MyLab, student performance often improves. That’s why instructors have chosen MyLab for over 15 years, touching the lives of over 50 million students.
