Building the Legacy: Individuals with Disabilities Education Act Amendments of 2004.
Purpose
To provide authoritative information about, and training materials on, IDEA and its final Part B regulations.
Source
The Building the Legacy training curriculum is a product of the National Dissemination Center for Children with Disabilities (NICHCY), produced at the request of the Office of Special Education Programs (OSEP) at the U.S. Department of Education.
Organization of the Curriculum
The training curriculum has five overarching themes (A, B, C, D, and E), with multiple training modules beneath each theme (1, 2, 3, and so on). These themes are:
- Theme A: Welcome to IDEA
The two modules under Theme A look at IDEA broadly, highlighting the top 10 basics of special education and the key changes in the law and regulations brought about by IDEA 2004.
- Theme B: IDEA and General Education
The six modules under Theme B focus on how IDEA aligns with the No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB) and emphasizes access to and participation in the general education curriculum for children with disabilities.
- Theme C: Evaluating Children for Disability
The three modules under Theme C look closely at what IDEA requires when children are evaluated to determine if they have a disability and if they are eligible for special education and related services.
- Theme D: Individualized Education Programs (IEPs)
The IEP is a cornerstone in the education of every child with a disability. The five modules in Theme D examine what the IEP is, who develops it, what this important document must contain, how decisions about a child's placement are made, and how it's changed (as well as remained the same) under IDEA 2004.
- Theme E: Procedural Safeguards
Prior written notice, informed written consent, access to records, dispute resolution, and discipline are critical elements in IDEA. These, and many additional protections, are covered in the three modules in Theme E.
Availability of the Curriculum
Individual modules will become available online as they are finalized, most in the coming weeks, the remainder by Summer 2007. Want to know when new materials become available? Give us your email address, and we'll tell you. Sign up at:

Theme A: Welcome to IDEA!There are two modules in Theme A. The handouts for both of these modules are grouped in one package. If you are downloading either module, you'll want the handout package for Theme A. You only need to download Theme A handouts once; the package includes the handouts for both modules.

 Module 1: The Top 10 Basics of Special Education
Module 1 includes the following components provided in separate files. If you need or want the entire module, be sure to download each of the components in either Word or PDF format.
Discussion. The discussion text describes how the PowerPoint presentation operates and explains the content of each slide, including relevant requirements of the statute passed by Congress in December 2004 and the final regulations for Part B published in August 2006. The discussion is available in 4 PDF files (or as 1 accessible Word file), listed below.
The first 2 PDFs provide discussion related to sections 1 and 2 of the module, which are intended for audiences needing a basic introduction to special education. The last 2 PDFs provide the discussion related to section 3 of the module, which looks in detail at five key definitions in IDEA (child with a disability, special education, related services, supplementary aids and services, and transition services). Section 3 is intended for more advanced audiences or those hardy souls who want all the details!

PowerPoint Presentation. NICHCY is pleased to provide a PowerPoint presentation around which trainers can frame training that introduces the basics of procedural safeguards.

If you haven't downloaded any handouts for Theme E yet, then go back to the top of Theme E and download the handouts file in PDF or as an accessible Word file. If you HAVE downloaded Theme E's handouts previously (i.e., when Module 17, Introduction to Procedural Safeguards, was first released), then you only need the handouts for Module 19. For your convenience, here are stand-alone files for just those handouts.

PowerPoint Presentation. NICHCY is pleased to provide a PowerPoint presentation around which trainers can frame training on IDEA's discipline procedures. Important note: You do NOT need the PowerPoint software to use the presentation. It's set to display, regardless, because it includes the PowerPoint Viewer. Within the Discussion file all slides in the presentation are described, along with how they operate.
Additional Materials: QuotesNICHCY is also pleased to make available two slide shows of 25 quotes each for trainers to use as they see fit, such as before a training session while participants are coming into the room or during breaks. The quotes touch upon universal themes in our lives, such as children, families, the art of teaching, leadership, teamwork, love, and growth. The slides themselves feature vivid pictures of children, teachers, moms and dads, schools, and...well, you get the idea. We hope you (and your participants) enjoy viewing these slide shows of quotes as much as we enjoyed creating them.
To download the quote shows, right-click on the link and save the zipped file to your hard drive. Then double-click on the icon to extract the zip file. You launch the slide show (which is automated and will run by itself) by double-clicking on the PLAY.bat file within the folder itself.
