Answer to Question 1

ANSWER: b

Answer to Question 2

ANSWER: In 1963, Public Law 88-164 authorized federal funds for training professionals and for research and demonstration projects in special education. In 1975, Public Law 94-142 required states to provide a free and appropriate public education for all handicapped children; it also specified that the education be provided in the least restrictive environment. This law also mandated that an IEP be written for every child who receives special education services. Public Law 99-457 extended these rights to children ages 2 to 5. Public Law 101-476 requires transition services. Court rulings have clarified and supported these rights, asserting the right to a thorough, appropriate, culturally sensitive assessment before placement, and the right to education in the least restrictive setting, with emphasis on regular class placement with accommodations and support whenever appropriate. IDEA 2004 address the quality of personnel and updates IEP standards to reflect scientifically based instructional practices, cognitive behavioral interventions, and early intervention services, as appropriate.
