PRESENTATION OUTLINE
Inclusion
- each student has the equal opportunity in a general education environment
- arrange instruction to benefit all students
- reasonable individualized instruction
- close cooperation between general and special education teacher
- frequent precise monitoring student progress
Mainstreaming
- different from inclusion
- special education students spend different periods or depends on the time (30 minutes- 1 hour) in a general education classroom
- integration does not work, inclusion does
- students were not supported
- little interaction with teacher and peers
IDEA
- requires that the movement will be toward inclusion practices
- students required to be placed in Least Restrictive Environment (LRE)
- IEP must explain why the student will NOT participate in any general education activities and how the disability effects their participation
Affect students without disabilities?
- many fear inclusion will take attention and time away from students without a disability
- research has shown that it does not affect students
- research has also shown that their level of achievement and interactions between students with and without disabilities were not affected
Impact on attitudes and relationships
- studies have shown the positive results of relationships from inclusion
- improvement of attitudes from studies show both students with and without disabilities
- greater understanding and empathy
- increase in independence, more social skills, improved behavior
- teachers having a positive attitude strongly helps in the classroom
- more people become exposed, knowledgeable and experienced, the greater acceptance of inclusion will happen
