    High School and Beyond: Continuing Education for Students with Disabilities
    (2011) Keating, Linda JK; Damme, Susan
    Transition means to pass from one stage to another. Until recent history, students with disabilities have not had many opportunities to continue education. Designing a transition plan from high school to postsecondary education is key to understanding self and opportunities outside of high school. Research and teaching models have created a new positive attitude to work toward success and quality of life. Clearly following the laws created for people with disabilities along with coordinating services, supports, and self-determination has begun to create self-advocacy as the norm. This literature review will provide an overview of transition plans’ points of interest. The key words throughout this review include transition, plan, postsecondary education, laws, self-determination, self-advocacy, advocacy, responsibility, dual enrollment, accommodations, services, students, disabilities, new paradigm, and quality of life.
