Over the last decade, the educational context for students with disabilities has significantly changed primarily as a result of mandates contained in NCLB and IDEA. The purpose of this book is to summarize the research literature regarding how students might be provided classrooms and schools that are both inclusive and effective. Inclusive schools are defined as places where students with disabilities are valued and active participants in academic and social activities and are given supports that help them succeed. Effectiveness is addressed within the current movement toward multi-tiered systems of support and evidence-based practices that meet the demands of high-stakes accountability.

Violence in some schools of learning has continued to be a problem in the midst of the securities and other precautions put in place. Instituting rules and order does not only limit students' freedom, they are treated by students as another way of adults telling them what to do. Young people have been found to learn more from what they see and how they are treated. Incorporating students in what concerns them help them own the rules, correct bad behaviors and prevent violence. This book enumerates Simple Mediation Processes, School based leadership and Multicultural Strategies for students that are highly essential for character development, violence prevention and proper conducive learning environment.
