#24: Christina Samuels from Education Week Magazine

18:48 minutes (4.31 MB)

This week Glen is enjoying a brief and deserved summer vacation, so Mike calls up Christina Samuels, the special education and student health reporter for Education Week magazine. (Yes, THE Education Week Magazine!) She fills us in on current trends in special education and answers the question everyone's burning to ask: Is it a good idea to kick a special education student out of the classroom because his classmates don't like him? Spoiler alert: it's not. Actually, that's probably the worst idea you could have aside from taking your students to the Venomous Snake Petting Zoo.
