Book Early Childhood Inclusive Education in Thailand

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recognising that inclusive education is critical to advancing All children's development, social inclusion and future productivity, this doctoral thesis seeks to engage the field of Thailand's early childhood inclusive education in a theoretical and practical conversation. Using Pierre Bourdieu's conceptual tools (Capital, Field and Habitus), the study explores and critically analyses the facilitators and barriers to early childhood inclusive education in terms of teachers and education policy maker's inclusive knowledge, beliefs, skills and practices in Bangkok, the capital city of Thailand. The conceptualisation from which this thesis is based, suggests that early childhood inclusive practice "exists in a social space given life through constant power struggles" (Eacott, 2010, p. 221). It is this contested space that defines the philosophy and practice of inclusive education, and arguably, teachers and policy makers' everyday practices. Using a mixed method design underpinned by Bourdieuian eclectic methodology and analysis, the study found that the early childhood teachers have limited knowledge and understanding of inclusive education and practice which they have attributed to: (1) a lack of effective training in inclusive education (2) inclusive education for young children is a new educational concept and agenda in Thailand. The study further identified that although the policy makers agreed that legislation and policy on inclusive education is adequate, this is not backed by effective implementation in real practice. Teachers reported that they felt significant stress and helplessness in their classrooms when planning teaching to meet the learning and developmental needs of children with disability and those with additional education needs. The teachers attributed these stressors to not knowing what to do with children with disability in their classes in addition to supports that were not forthcoming in their teaching of children with disability. Furthermore, the study uncovered that relational and cultural-religious beliefs of reincarnation and hierarchical relationships posed barriers to inclusive education in the early years classrooms in Thailand. This means, a number of children in the early childhood settings that claimed to be inclusive, are actually in search of inclusion.The major implications glean from this study highlight the need for quality professional education, training and retraining of stakeholders (teachers, policy makers, support personnel etc) in leveraging knowledge and practice in educating children with disability/additional education needs. The study underscores the need for policy monitoring, flexibility in curricula, funding and novel ways of theorising issues of exclusion and inclusion. To accomplish these, the study provides a model to inform the development of a culturally relevant inclusive education for all young children in Thailand.

Book Education in Thailand

Download or read book Education in Thailand written by Gerald W. Fry and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-11-01 with total page 744 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This interdisciplinary book offers a critical analysis of Thai education and its evolution, providing diverse perspectives and theoretical frameworks. In the past five decades Thailand has seen impressive economic success and it is now a middle-income country that provides development assistance to poorer countries. However, educational and social development have lagged considerably behind itsglobally recognized economic success. This comprehensive book covers each level of education, such as higher and vocational/technical education, and such topics as internationalization, inequalities and disparities, alternative education, non-formal and informal education, multilingual education, educational policy and planning, and educational assessment. The 25 Thai and 8 international contributors to the volume include well-known academics and practitioners. Thai education involves numerous paradoxes, which are identified and explained. While Thailand has impressively expanded its educational system quantitatively with much massification, quality problems persist at all levels. As such, the final policy-oriented summary chapter suggests strategies to enable Thailand to escape “the middle income trap” and enhance the quality of its education to ensure its long-term developmental success.

This book was released on 2018-07-03 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modern education in Thailand started at the end of the nineteenth century under the impulse of King Chulalongkorn. Many scholars tracing back the evolution from traditional education to a modern education system emphasized the feeling of necessity that motivated this transformation. Wyatt (1969), Mead (2004) and Watson (1982) underlined the need for a modern administration, to handle the Siamese nation-state “as” the Western states, and in that respect, the key role played by education to structure the new Siam and to appear to the eyes of the world as civilized (Peleggi 2002). The shaping of a new education took place amidst strong political struggles. Siam needed to stand firm within the regional arena, swept by the winds of Western colonialism. Internally, King Chulalongkorn had to legitimize his power and to unify the kingdom by integrating satellite kingdoms into a wider space, the Siamese nation state. Education was vital for this mission as it would contribute not only to bringing state power into the provinces through state-paid teachers and government officials, but also to transmitting a whole nation-related imagery to the young generations. Giving rise to Thai-ness among the populations located at the margins of the kingdom was a tremendous ordeal. In the Southern part of the kingdom, population was mainly Muslim, spoke Malay and felt culturally closer to the Malay state (Dulyakasem 1991). In the Northern part, incorporating the Lanna kingdom and hill tribe populations into Siam proved not to be easy. Ideological, social and national values were introduced into education delivered to students, and with the implementation of the Compulsory Education Act of 1921, school attendance tied children and parents to the nation state and made them liable to it.
