    The Inclusion Illusion
    Do No Harm
    • As the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) expands in scope and importance, it's become increasingly apparent that these convenient and useful devices also come with hidden security risks--not just to people, but to hospitals and, ultimately, our data. In Do No Harm: Protecting Connected Medical Devices, Healthcare, and Data from Hackers and Adversarial Nation States, cybersecurity expert Matthew Webster draws on over 25 years of experience in IT and information security to walk you through an insightful exploration of the health benefits offered by the IoMT, the security risks they create, and the concrete steps you can take to protect yourself, your organization, and your patients from harm. You'll discover how the high barriers for protecting connected medical devices interfere with lifesaving innovations that could disrupt the healthcare industry and change the way disease is treated. You'll also learn why the healthcare industry is one in which change is desperately needed, and why that need for change must be balanced against regulatory requirements that protect patient data and health. Perfect for medical device researchers, manufacturers, business leaders, cybersecurity professionals, healthcare professionals, and system administrators, the book includes vital information for anyone interested in patient privacy, cybersecurity, and the Internet of Medical Things, including: The reasons behind the expansion of the medical device industry The dark side of the demand for IoMT devices The regulatory landscape of IoMT devices and common roadblocks to safe adoption How to protect health data from cell phones and commonly used applications How the various disciplines of cybersecurity can enable hospitals and other entities to protect themselves from cybercriminals and threats from nation states who act with relative impunity

    • Inclusion conjures images of children with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) learning in classes alongside peers in a mainstream school. For pupils in the UK with high-level SEND, who have an Education, Health and Care Plan (formerly a Statement), this implies an everyday educational experience similar to that of their typically-developing classmates. Yet in vital respects, they are worlds apart. Based on the UK's largest observation study of pupils with high-level SEND, The Inclusion Illusion exposes how attendance at a mainstream school is no guarantee of receiving a mainstream education. Observations of nearly 1,500 lessons in English schools show that their everyday experience of school is characterised by separation and segregation. Furthermore, interviews with nearly 500 pupils, parents and school staff reveal the effect of this marginalisation on the quality of their education. The way schools are organised and how classrooms are composed creates a form of 'structural exclusion' that preserves mainstream education for typically-developing pupils and justifies a diluted pedagogical offer for pupils with high-level SEND. Policymakers, not mainstream schools, are indicted over this state of affairs. This book prompts questions about what we think inclusion is and what it looks like. Ultimately, it suggests why a more authentic form of inclusion is needed, and how it might be achieved

    • Drawing on the lessons from one of the world's leading research and development efforts involving teaching assistants (TAs), this book is the authors' most authoritative text yet on how to design a whole school plan to improve TAs' deployment, practice and preparedness, and put it into action. The authors use robust theories and original research to explore an innovative and integrated approach to making the most of TAs, and recognising the valuable contributions they make to the classroom and the school. Structured around a unique and empirically sound conceptual framework, this book provides essential principles, practical tools and workable strategies, developed through collaboration with hundreds of UK schools. It focuses on ensuring TAs can thrive in their role, and presents the tools and techniques needed to do so accessibly, and is illustrated with case studies on school and classroom practices. Essential reading for all primary school leaders and SENCOs responsible for training and managing TAs, this book is also a useful resource for teachers and teaching assistants looking to optimise the TAs' contributions. Used in combination with The Teaching Assistant's Guide to Effective Interaction, Maximising the Impact of Teaching Assistants in Primary Schools is a comprehensive and unrivalled guide to supporting school workforce improvement.
