Postsecondary Education: The Next Frontier for Individuals with Intellectual Disabilities
This introductory chapter in Think College! Postsecondary Education Options for Students with Intellectual Disabilities provides readers with a description of the students and postsecondary education (PSE) services that this book focuses on, a historical and philosophical basis for why students with intellectual disabilities (ID) desire postsecondary opportunities, and changes that have occurred in special education that have led to this desire. Some of the relevant advances in research and practice are also discussed.
