Special needs children's caregivers must remember to put the Nature Nurture theory on his/her therapeutic table all the time. The needs of these children could be more than the regular children and most often they really are. These extra needs stem from delayed developmental milestones which leave special needs children quite often on the catching up road. It is therefore imperative on the caregiver to always be cognizant of child developmental characteristics in order not to jump or omit any further step thereby increasing and compounding the problems of these special needs children especially in Nigeria where earlier cultural stereotypes had left no sugary palatables as such for us to continue with until the 1970s per se. It is true that child care and special needs services ranged from individual family perspectives to policy developments and designs without implementation plans. Adequate needs and needs assessment of these children were not actually the focus. Therefore, individual ministries, parastatals, organisations and families were solely doing their own things. Sometimes clashes in approach and interpretation of these policies were unavoidable. Committees designed to be set up by governments to implement these policies failed to come into existence. Responsibilities and duties were duplicated and no specific duties were actually ascribed to any specific ministry or parastatals. As a result, the onus fell mainly on the Ministry of Education. For over 30 years later, because of the fundamental mistake made by not adequately setting out the implementation blueprint, actual implementation became a problem. This thirteen-chapter book will attempt to lay bare some of the teething problems facing services delivery package for special needs children/youths in Nigeria.
Based on a yearlong ethnographic study, this book describes the daily life and work of the Irente Rainbow School, a special education school for students with developmental disabilities in Lushoto, Tanzania. It examines the use of local context, community funds of knowledge, culturally relevant pedagogy, and community support to teach students with disabilities important life skills, independence, self-advocacy and to fight for their human rights. This book offers several lessons for different audiences; it is a primer on disability and education in a rural African town, an alternative model for non-governmental agencies to consider in designing community-based and community-engaged programs, and a story about an exceptional group of teachers, students and families who took action to provide an education and a realization of rights for children with disabilities. ​

It also establishes the benefits of technology-mediated learning environments over traditional learning methods. Highlighting a wide array of topics such as online learning environments, active learning model, and educational development, this publication explores technology-based teaching methods in higher education. This book is targeted toward educators, educational administrators, academicians, researchers, and professionals within the realm of higher education.
