@tashnuvashaheen.bsky.social - emergency licensed special ed teachers more likely to work in self contained settings, less likely to work in inclusive settings; more likely to work with students with IDD and ASD. Such important findings regarding inequitable sorting of special ed teachers!

New working paper! With Dr. @HannahCKistler, we examine how emergency-licensed special education teachers are distributed across and within schools and service delivery models compared to their non-emergency-licensed counterparts in the state of Indiana

WEPC Day 1 at #AEFP2025 starts off w/ lots of coverage on the teacher workforce:

@lizbettini.bsky.social @lindseykaler.bsky.social @tashnuvashaheen.bsky.social talking #SpecialEducationTeachers (Session 1.01)

Marcus Winters/John Fallon in 1.11 for some new insights on changes to licensure tests.

We can’t talk about the dismantling of public ed or special ed without talking about racism & ableism.

Organizing against the fascists requires us to focus on MAGA’s core project, which targets folks who are trans, Black, Brown, disabled, women, & poor.

The work requires an intersectional lens.

Thrilled to share a newly published online-first article in TESE with some amazing scholars. We used concept maps to qualitatively analyze Special Education teacher candidate identity development over time. #edusky #teachereducation

Check out @tashnuvashaheen.bsky.social's new paper in TESE! Field placement studies often focus on practicum teachers. Tash's findings suggest we should also be attending to how uni. supervisors help candidates connect coursework to practice in their placements!
