This paper
examines overall themes arising from five case studies of elementary
schools implementing inclusive models for students with learning
disabilities and draws implications for policy and teacher preparation.
Themes concern model variations, the role of the special education
teacher, and evidence that students with learning disabilities are,
in fact, receiving a special education. (DB)
