In addition, older workers have developed work ethics that have sustained them through long-term careers. Consequently, younger workers who engage in the nuts-and-bolts of everyday work with older employees can observe and use that experience and that work ethic (Authenticity Consulting, LLC, n
Through its workplace policies, Inclusion Days, 'Lunch and Learn' speakers, in-depth diversity-rich website, diversity e-mail newsletters, and widespread sponsorships, Hershey captures a huge share of the world's market while benefitting every community in which it operates. Through its many programs and sponsorships, Hershey encourages its employees to interpret those values and apply them to his/her own function within the company (Denecke & McGuire, 2005)
If truth be told, the most important asset that an organization can possess is a top management talent. It has been acknowledged by a majority of the organizations that it is their workforce that has enabled them to be successful in achieving the pursued goals (James & Burgoyne)
And this is true for all types of organizations and industrial sectors (local or international). According to the research in this field, if the organizations today wish to be successful then it is indispensable for them to have proficient, skilled and competent managers (Whetten, 2011)
Having a positive and optimistic attitude is really essential in the contemporary world of business as organizations continuously face hurdles and negative results. Only those companies are achieving success where the leaders are increasing employees' enthusiasm towards work and developing a positive attitude in the followers (Yukl, 2010)
Furthermore, large effect sizes for growth were found on Letter -- Word Identification, Word Attack, and Passage Comprehension for the LST/PALS treatment group. There were no differences found between the conditions for reading fluency (Al Otaiba and Fuchs, 2006)
School districts should actively strive to achieve best practice. In testing situations when "best practice" cannot be achieved, school districts must still ensure that evaluation professionals involved in the special education evaluation of CLD students are knowledgeable of cultural and linguistic issues and have training on evaluation materials and practices appropriate for CLD students (Alvarado, 2006)
Thus, the majority of students with chronic behavior challenges have moderate to severe reading problems that are very difficult to improve over time. Given the difficulty educators face in building the reading skills of these students, it is not surprising that those who serve these students have described them as troubled and troubling (Benner, 2005)
We recognize that, although promising, our work on the dual-discrepancy criterion is at an early stage. It remains to be seen if children identified as non-responders represent a qualitatively distinct group or, alternatively, if non-responsiveness is best conceived in terms of a continuum (Dion, Morgan, Fuchs and Fuchs, 2004)
Let's start with a vision. Students think and learn differently and require different learning approaches Building background knowledge strengthens students' comprehension skills Struggling learners need guided, step-by-step scaffolding and instruction Technologies that work for students with special needs can work for all Universal design for learning is a cost-effective approach to serving all kids Promoting student self-advocacy is empowering, replicable, and transferable (Johnson, 2010)

We conclude that what students are taught should be put ahead of where they are taught. Our fundamental concern is that students with intellectual disabilities be respected and be taught all they can learn (Kauffman and Hung, 2009)
Compounding the problem, remedial support for literacy is typically provided only at the elementary school level. Consequently, students who enter secondary school still struggling with reading tend to continue to struggle throughout their middle and high school years (Malmgren and Trezek, 2009)
At the core of RTI in reading are the notions that struggling readers are identified early, that they are provided with well timed, intensive, expert reading instruction to enable them to catch up with their achieving peers, and that they are placed in special education services only if and when the provision of intensive and expert reading instruction has not resulted in significant advances in their reading development. Pedagogically, RTI is a tiered framework for instructional delivery, which includes increasingly intensified levels, or tiers, of high-quality instruction matched to the student's needs (Mokhtari, Porter and Edwards, 2010)
With more students with LD receiving instruction in general education classes, it is essential that both general and special educators increase in their understanding of research-based strategies that they can utilize to improve the comprehension ability of students with LD or other reading difficulties (Stetter, and Hughes, 2010). Reading problems of children with disabilities including children with cognitive impairment included difficulties in discriminating letters, particularly those which are liable to visual confusion; responding to all relevant components of complex stimulus arrays; acquisition of letter-sound correspondence as letters and isolated phonemes are abstract stimuli to which children with intellectual disabilities may have problems relating; understanding difference between sounds of isolated phonemes and their sound when blended in words; graphemephoneme correspondence; difficulty with generalization of acquired skills; and difficulty with communication (Rao, 2009)
One way for teachers to support students' comprehension of narrative text is to actively instruct them in using story grammar strategies. Story grammar provides students with a framework to help them understand narrative texts and includes common elements such as plot, character, setting, and theme (Stetter, and Hughes, 2010)
Pedagogically, RTI is a tiered framework for instructional delivery, which includes increasingly intensified levels, or tiers, of high-quality instruction matched to the student's needs (Mokhtari, Porter and Edwards, 2010). In a study done by (Vaughn, Cirino, Wanzek, Wexler, Fletcher, Denton, Barth, Romain and Francis, (2010) the effectiveness of a yearlong, researcher-provided, Tier 2 (secondary) intervention with a group of sixth-grader was examined

The concept is still alive in the literature and is promoted under the head of corporate social responsibility. There are many organizations which still do not like these obligations as it increases their cost (Banerjee, 2007)
Furthermore, the concept was launched in the literature to give business management experts an idea about managing the disabled workforce. Few technologies were introduced in the market that could help the organizations support their disabled employees (Hunt, 1992)
