Beschreibung:
Dr. Santosâ (TM)s research focuses on young children with disabilities and their families in the context of early intervention and early childhood special education services. She is interested in developing an understanding of the ecologic influence of families and culture on parents and professionals in facilitating young childrenâ (TM)s development and learning. Through her research, teaching, and public service activities, Dr. Santos aims to make a positive impact on the lives of children with disabilities and their families by enhancing the practices of professionals who work directly with these children and families. Her prior experiences as a preschool teacher, special educator, and administrator in inclusive settings have greatly influenced her work in academia.
This popular reference provides hard-to-find information and practical advice to professionals who are working with children and families from diverse cultural and linguistic backgrounds. It includes facts about the influence of culture on people's beliefs, values, and behaviors; descriptions of the challenges families may have adapting to a different culture; and more.
