From the Paper:

"In a general sense most educators agree that science should have a guiding influence on special education. Research determined special education needs, and research is a valuable tool to discover the best method for teaching special education students. When the research is solidly put together it provides a blueprint of success markers that educators turn into stepping stones to teach special education students with. Until recently these stepping stones have been followed by educators in the field who were not especially qualified in individual core subjects, but instead were trained in special education delivery methods designed to reach students with disabling learning differences.
