I am part of a graduate course/internship where students are instructed to evaluate and improve the Wikipedia entry for Special Education in the United States.

Evaluate the article
The section of the article about Student Conduct and Discipline is very short and does not link to many external sources or peer-reviewed research. Student conduct and discipline, in my experience, are integral to conversations about special education and this section does not cover the topic thoroughly enough. It superficially covers Manifestation Determination Hearings but does not cover topics such as disproportionality in discipline referrals, behavior/discipline strategies and considerations, and other topics relevant to the section. It also references things like "bad behavior" without operationalizing that subjective description. The article is written in a neutral tone and is grammatically correct.
