  1. Hi there class Welcome to module six. This week.
  2. This week you're going to be learning about the individuals
  3. with disabilities act and section 504 of the rehabilitation act.
  4. You have several things to do this week.
  5. You have to read two chapters chapter four and five you
  6. have a video to watch that's included on the module homepage.
  7. You have to power point presentations to review.
  8. You have a discussion on 88 compliance in your hometown to participate in.
  9. You have a written assignment where you're going to compare
  10. and contrast
  11. I PS in section 504 plans and you are going
  12. to take an assessment on the information that you've learned.
  13. So a couple of things about I. D. A.
  14. Um it was originally enacted in 1975 as the public law
  15. 94 1 42 or the Education for All handicapped Children Act
  16. has been reauthorized several times.
  17. It was first reauthorized in 1986,
  18. It was reauthorized again in 1990 and that's when they changed the
  19. name from education for all handicapped
  20. Children to the individuals with education,
  21. individuals with disabilities act, I'm sorry.
  22. um and then in 1997 it was reauthorized and
  23. Information-related to or pertaining to transition rights and services for
  24. individuals after once they hit that post school like 18-21
  25. Um was included in the reauthorization in 97 and then finally it was
  26. reauthorized in 2004 and they changed
  27. the name again from individuals with disabilities
  28. act. Two Individuals with disabilities Education Improvement Act.
  29. It mandates several things that mandates
  30. that all instruction for individuals with
  31. disabilities must be specifically designed or
  32. specialized instruction for that particular person.
  33. Uh It mandates tape,
  34. it mandates the least restrictive environment and it
  35. mandates the use of individualized education programs.
  36. And it also mandates that
  37. Individuals between the ages of three
  38. and 21 received specialized instruction under
  39. the
  40. Special education umbrella. Sorry about that.
  41. It also mandates the use of procedural safeguards to
  42. protect the rights of students and their families.
  43. So with section
  44. 504 in chapter five
  45. It's
  46. so section five before came about as a result of the injuries that soldiers
  47. received in World War One.
  48. So when the government started to see that they had impairments
  49. um physical or mental because of
  50. the dealings that they had when um they were overseas fighting,
  51. they realized that they had to do something to provide some kind of support for them.
  52. And if you notice I didn't say disability. I said impairment.
  53. So section 504 is different from I. D. A.
  54. Because it mandates that you only have to have an impairment,
  55. not necessarily a disability to receive services under five Before.
  56. It also mandates that any place that receives federal funding has
  57. to provide services under Section five before of the Rehabilitation Act.
  58. And okay, so now here's information about your car, your discussion. So a. D.
  59. A compliance in your hometown.
  60. What I want you to do is visit three
  61. of the locations that I've listed in the discussion.
  62. I want you to go there and look around
  63. um I want you to see whether or not
  64. you think these area these places are in compliance.
  65. They meet the compliance requirements of A. D. A. So is there 36?
  66. Are the doorways 36 inches?
  67. Is there enough room to exit your car if you're in a wheelchair?
  68. Um Is there available seating?
  69. So there's a list of questions that I want you to review
  70. when you go visit these places.
  71. Then I want you to report back and have a meaningful discussion
  72. with two of your classmates. So it's I want you to have like cocktail conversations.
  73. So these are things that you can bring up and obviously have
  74. meaningful learn new things about different places essentially
  75. from each other and with each other.
  76. And then your assignment this week is you are going to complete um just a brief.
  77. So what I want you to do is
  78. create a comparison and contrast between I. Ps. And 504 plants.
  79. And then after you've completed your chart,
  80. I want you to in the next like three or four paragraphs.
  81. I want you to dig deeper and really explain
  82. Um the differences between the two
