Download or read book Improving Schools Developing Inclusion written by Mel Ainscow and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2006-09-27 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While many books explore the possibilities for developing inclusive practices in schools, and ‘inclusion’ is widely regarded as a desirable goal, much of the literature on the subject has been narrowly concerned with the inclusion of pupils with special educational needs. This book however, takes the view that marginalisation, exclusion and underachievement take many forms and affect many different kinds of child. As such, a definition of inclusion should also touch upon issues of equity, participation, community, entitlement, compassion, respect for diversity and sustainability. Here the highly regarded authors focus on: barriers to participation and learning experienced by pupils the practices that can overcome these barriers the extent to which such practices facilitate improved learning outcomes how such practices can be encouraged and sustained within schools and LEAs. The book is part of the Improving Learning series, published in partnership with the Teaching and Learning Research Project.

Download or read book Inclusive Education for the 21st Century written by Linda Graham and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-07-16 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Placing a student on the autism spectrum in a busy classroom with a pair of noise-cancelling headphones and an aide to deal with the inevitable meltdowns is often done in the name of 'inclusion', but this is integration and not inclusive. How can teachers and schools create genuinely inclusive classrooms that meet the needs of every student? Research evidence indicates the strategies that make schools inclusive for students with disability benefit all students. Yet many schools are still operating under twentieth-century models that disadvantage students, especially those with disability. Inclusive Education for the 21st Century provides a rigorous overview of the foundational principles of inclusive education, and the barriers to access and participation. It explores evidence-based strategies to support diverse learners, including specific changes in curriculum, pedagogy and assessment practices, and the use of data. It addresses the needs of children with physical, sensory and intellectual disabilities, as well as those with complex learning profiles, including mental health issues. With chapters from leading experts from Australia and the UK, Inclusive Education for the 21st Century addresses common issues in both primary and secondary schools. Underpinned throughout by research evidence, it is designed to assist educators to develop the deep knowledge required to make inclusive education a reality in all schools.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are teachers ready for inclusion? What is appropriate teacher education? Traditional approaches to inclusive education focused on learners with disabilities.

Download or read book How People Learn II written by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2018-09-27 with total page 347 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are many reasons to be curious about the way people learn, and the past several decades have seen an explosion of research that has important implications for individual learning, schooling, workforce training, and policy. In 2000, How People Learn: Brain, Mind, Experience, and School: Expanded Edition was published and its influence has been wide and deep. The report summarized insights on the nature of learning in school-aged children; described principles for the design of effective learning environments; and provided examples of how that could be implemented in the classroom. Since then, researchers have continued to investigate the nature of learning and have generated new findings related to the neurological processes involved in learning, individual and cultural variability related to learning, and educational technologies. In addition to expanding scientific understanding of the mechanisms of learning and how the brain adapts throughout the lifespan, there have been important discoveries about influences on learning, particularly sociocultural factors and the structure of learning environments. How People Learn II: Learners, Contexts, and Cultures provides a much-needed update incorporating insights gained from this research over the past decade. The book expands on the foundation laid out in the 2000 report and takes an in-depth look at the constellation of influences that affect individual learning. How People Learn II will become an indispensable resource to understand learning throughout the lifespan for educators of students and adults.

Download or read book Los verdaderos actores de la inclusi n educativa written by Gloria Cristina Morales and published by Editorial Autores de Argentina. This book was released on 2019-02-13 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El pensar una educación inclusiva que reconozca la diversidad como una característica humana y donde el desafío sea que el sistema educativo pueda responder equitativamente a todo el alumnado, sin importar su condición, tiene que ver con la sociedad que queremos, por eso las escuelas inclusivas son esenciales en el desarrollo personal de los ciudadanos donde se aprenda a valorar y respetar la diversidad humana. En este trabajo de investigación social, se plantea un estudio de caso en el aula inclusiva, con el objetivo de describir las actitudes vinculares que desarrollan los alumnos hacia un compañero con una discapacidad severa. En el proceso de inclusión estudiado, la dinámica actitudinal de los actores, plantea el debate sobre la inclusión y tanto en las prácticas de las instituciones educativas como en las políticas, todavía esta arraigado el pensar la discapacidad como carencia y no como diversidad . El impacto de la experiencia de estar en un aula inclusiva y "aprender todos juntos" constituye el centro del análisis de las actitudes del alumnado en ese contexto. La conclusión del estudio señala que cuando el vínculo con otro con diversidad funcional pasa a ser fruto de la experiencia, los alumnos tienen cambios en sus actitudes discriminatorias hacia la discapacidad.

Book excerpt: Hundreds of grassroots groups have sprung up around the world to teach programming, web design, robotics, and other skills outside traditional classrooms.

This book presents evidence-based practices that will help you create and deliver lessons that work and build a teaching community around them. Topics include the differences between different kinds of learners, diagnosing and correcting misunderstandings, teaching as a performance art, what motivates and demotivates adult learners, how to be a good ally, fostering a healthy community, getting the word out, and building alliances with like-minded groups. The book includes over a hundred exercises that can be done individually or in groups, over 350 references, and a glossary to help you navigate educational jargon.
