Psychometric Analysis and Revision of the Opinions Relative to Mainstreaming Scale
This article provides supporting evidence for the use of a revised version of the Opinions Relative to Mainstreaming (ORM) scale. Analyses of data produced by a test of the revised scale, the Opinions Relative to Integration of Students with Disabilities (ORI), indicated satisfactory item characteristics and adequate reliability and homogeneity. Initial support for ORI's construct validity was demonstrated by the results of regression analyses relating ORI scores to respondent sociodemographic and experiential data and scores on the Scale of Attitudes Toward Disabled Persons (SADP). The ORI should prove useful to researchers evaluating the attitudes of educators toward the integration of students with disabilities into general education classrooms.

The purposes, practices, and professionalism of teacher reflectivity
Very little information about the impact of reflection on teacher performance, teacher retention, and student learning is available in teacher preparation programs. This book provides practical and research-based chapters that offer greater clarity about the particular kinds of reflection that matter and avoids talking about teacher reflection generically, which implies that all kinds of reflection are of equal value. This book addresses five very pertinent concepts: (1) teacher reflectivity in theory and research, (2) teacher reflectivity in teacher education programs, (3) teacher reflectivity with teacher candidates, (4) teacher reflectivity in schools and classrooms, and (5) teacher reflectivity and international perspectives.

Creating Caring Learning Communities
First and foremost, promoting a culture of community requires that the teacher make the quality of relationships equally as important as the teaching/ learning process. Cultivating the classroom as a community of learners relies on instituting policies, practices and routines that involve real connections with students that solidify student-teacher alliances. Putting community-building into practice includes: - Creating a vehicle for open and ongoing dialogue with students Getting to know students and their backgrounds by taking an interest in students' life stories Infusing the classroom with communitybuilding experiences embedded in methods, structures, and content learning Responding to students with acknowledgment and acceptance rather than defensiveness, judgment, or denial Creating classroom norms that balance the growth of the individual and the well-being of the community. BARBARA LARRIVEE, professor in the Department of Learning, Literacy, and Culture, California State University, San Bernardino, is author of Authentic Classroom Management: Creating a Community of Learners.

TOOLS FOR MANAGING Stress
Stress management must happen on two levels: preventive to inoculate you against the harmful effects of stress-producing situations and reactive to minimize the effects once a stressful event occurs. Three Instant Stress Busters Pioneering researchers in the mind-body connection at Stanford School of Medicine created a stress reduction program composed of 10 scientifically proven life skills (Luskin & Pelletier, 2005). Implementing strategies that shift attention to more positive thoughts and events and taking time to appreciate run-of-the-mill daily events can provide the psychological boost to help you cope better when you are under stress, pl
