Very old sources

Most of the sources cited in this article currently (March 2016) are very old, some more than 50 years! They also mostly relate to intellectual disability (then called "mental retardation"). An effort should be made to find and use more recent scholarship as well as sources covering a broader range of disability issues. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 21:46, 3 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Title of this article

@Msustudent2016 - I changed the title to sentence case "Disability studies in education" because I don't see any evidence that the phrase is used as a proper noun. To change it to "Disability Studies in Education" we need to see that it is in fact a formal title of the topic - like the name of a person or organization. This article is not about a definite named "thing" as far as I can see. What are your thoughts about this? Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 06:45, 4 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

XFLQR what's your opinion about this? Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 09:13, 21 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I think DSE describes a distinct focus, similar to CDS describing Critical Disability Studies, IL describing independent living, etc. I have a slight preference for capitalization as in the Journal of Disability Studies in Education (JDSE) or the DSE special interest group of the American Educational Research Association.

Update

Given the fairly comprehensive overhaul this article has had recently it is probably apropriate to take another look at the title. Back in 2016 the sources underpinning the article were very old, they predated the existence of Disability Studies as an academic discipline, and even the concept of disability rights. The current version of the article, on the other hand, describes the existence of "Disability Studies in Education" as an established subject at the intersection of Disability Studies and Education. So, is it time to move it to the title case Disability Studies in Education as a proper noun phrase? Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 21:03, 11 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Updated information

During a Wikipedia university assignment, my group added updated information and depth to this article.

I added more depth and understanding of Special Education, an expansion on Ableism, and what inclusive curriculum means for intersectionality and identities. Sierramcdean (talk) 19:04, 11 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I added and updated citations to bring article up to date and provides evidence that content is researched and credible, added a history section, added what an appropriate education looks like under the IDEA, added the criticisms of medical model of disability in education, and images.

Nicely done, both of you Sierramcdean and Akanai14. If you're planning to do more work on it, please take care not to bias the article too much towards an American "point of view" of the topic. Look for sources from other parts of the world too. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 21:10, 11 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

DSE outside the United States

This entry needs examples from outside the United States. XFLQR (talk) 22:40, 21 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
