This week as we discussed the differences between IEPS, 504s and IFSPs I was able to see the different laws and how they came into play for our disabled community in America. Laws to protect individuals that are disabled are not very old we see that the 70s there were huge pushes for equal rights for these individuals. Creating the 504s, that protect individuals not only in their growing years but in higher education and the work field.
As we were reading, watching videos about and discussing these different documents I was able to learn so much about what they are. But I would love to see a mock-up version of these documents to help me understand how these different properties are used together.
I did love to see the videos about individuals that were actually struggling with these laws. Especially to see the video of the sit in in the 70s helped further open my eyes about what they had to do to change the system.
I feel roughly ready, I could figure things out. But again I want to see someone write an IEP/504/ISFP to understand how you would make it individualized for these people.
I have a great group of girls that I work with and I feel like we are on the same page, I was able to help them think of more possible accommodations that could be used. When I worked for a Resource Team at a school, I do have some exposure to these elements.
