The book that I selected was Early Childhood Intervention:
Shaping the Future for Children with Special Needs and Their Families by
Christina Groark. The knowledge that I obtained from the book was the
importance of early childhood interventions. Also I was able to obtain
statistical information regarding special education. The search strategy that
was helpful in locating my book was Badke’s 8.1.2 “Get to know the material
without reading it all”. I applied the steps the author suggested and was able
to narrow my list of books. Since, this was the first time I was searching for
electronic books I was glad that I read Brandman University’s Library and
Research Guide I was able to obtain valuable information.
On my initial search
I had a difficult time finding specific books on my topic because of the key
words I selected. However as I applied Badke’s suggestions 3.2.1 “Database
basics for keyword searching” I was able to find several books that were
relevant to my topic. What I will continue to research on is the challenges of
implementing the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act
