This burst of memorialization has inspired one new museum in Atlanta and the redesign of another in Memphis.

Family Portraits: Past And Present Representations Of Parents In Special Education Text Books, Dianne L. Ferguson, Philip M. Ferguson, Joanne Kim, Corrine Li

Education Faculty Articles and Research

This paper analyses the descriptions of families of children with disabilities as contained in introductory special education texts over the last 50 years.

The paper summarises the results of a qualitative document analysis of a sample of these textbooks from two different eras. The …
