Lou Brown tells stories that communicate important lessons and other information accrued from over forty years of working on behalf of individuals with disabilities in classrooms, workplaces and courtrooms.The stories will make you laugh, cry and angry.They will also inform and challenge you to improve the lives of persons with disabilities. The first set of stories is focused upon the struggles, absurdities, barriers and joys associated with attempting to arrange for students with disabilities to function in the same schools and classes in which they would function if not disabled. In the second set of stories Lou promotes authentic assessment and instruction, common sense and clear relationships between instructional practices and integrated post school outcomes are endorsed. The third set of stories focuses on the post-school vocational outcomes of students with disabilities that are blatantly unacceptable. If better outcomes are to be realized, better service delivery models, instructional practices and curricula must be generated. The DVDs were produced at Indiana University with Professor Leonard Burrello in front of a live studio audience of parents, teachers, school administrators, job coaches and persons with disabilities.The DVDs also contain printed versions of the stories and related information.
