Four Basic Assumptions Underlying Special Education
1) Disability is a condition that individuals have.
2) "Disabled" and 'typical" are useful and objective distinctions.
3) Special education is a coordinated and rationally conceived system of services that helps children identified as "disabled."
4) Progress in special education is made through improvements in diagnostics, intervention, and technology.
(Bogdan & Kugelmass, 1984)
