Summary Note "Educators will get a practical framework they'll use to: strengthen awareness of their own cultural identities and roles; explore how their values and beliefs might affect interactions with families; sidestep stereotypes by treating each family and situation as unique; ensure successful IEP [Individualized education program] meetings through cross-cultural communication; avoid 'right versus wrong' assumptions about parenting styles and practices; understand how diverse families might view key special education goals; combine ideas from different value systems to arrive at solutions that work for everyone. The authors draw on their own experiences and research to describe applications of cultural reciprocity, and they include three chapter-long case studies that give special educators a deeper, more nuanced understanding of the process at work." - Back cover.
