Pros And Cons Of Inclusion Classroom

Decent Essays
I agree there are pros and cons with students in the inclusion classroom. I believe depending on the disability of the child should depend on what classroom setting they should be in. I totaly agree with you that the child should have a certain standard to be alow in the general education classroom. I agree with everything you are saying. A lot of schools has cut back the teacher assistant to assist in the classroom now it just like 23 students in the classroom with one teacher. At the previous location I was at I observe an RTI classroom the teacher put the other students in grouos while she had her own group then the paprapropfessional came in to help out a group of students.

    Although, I do agree that there are merits to full inclusion, I do not believe that it is the right choice for every child with a disability. There cannot be one rule that applies to all students with disabilities, which range from severely mentally handicapped to mild cases of ADHD. I agree with Kauffman, McGee and Brigham ’s assertion (2008) that the goals of full inclusion are more for the perception of normalization with a disregard of expected proficiency. Placing students who cannot function at the relative level of their peers “fosters the impression that students are fitting in,” (p.93) when in reality this in not that case.…

    Now, we speak of inclusion within our schools and I have to say I totally agree with it, especially those students like myself who just needed a little boost with my learning. Natural environments as well is wonderful it allows students to feel comfortable in their surrounds, this should have been used from the very beginning especially with the infants and toddlers. Then the least restrictive environments are placing children of all abilities in one classroom, With this I see pros and cons, Pros would be for both the non disabilities, student to be exposed to all types of children and with the children with disabilities to have regular students…

    That is why I don’t think the Inclusion would be affective, and would lead to a negative class environment. As a young kid I had a friend who was partially deaf, and I can honestly say that at times I would get frustrated when it came to communicating with him. As our friendship grew I feel that we both were able to teach each other something. For instance, I learned to use a little bit of sign language because of him, and I helped him be more socially active. I think the LRE would provide that social interaction with students with and without disabilities and benefit students…

    I chose this, because inclusion is so important for the student. Inclusion allows for the student to make friends and learn social cues. Inclusion brings children enjoyment, and improves a child’s quality of life. This is important for teachers to remember this when working with children with special needs. These children do not need to spend all of their time in isolation, or in a group of only children with special needs.…

    At the core of the argument for separating students on the autism spectrum into self-contained classrooms exists the concept of providing individualized attention to their academic needs. As many supporters of a self-contained special education system may argue, the structure of this form of education constructs an environment in which the academic pacing is more suitable for children with learning disabilities. These special educational settings, designed to provide personalized academic guidance, are more appropriately devised to meet individual educational needs than mainstream classrooms. Inclusive classes introduce numerous challenges to general educational instructors who frequently lack the time and resources to successfully accommodate…

    1. Different stakeholders define “inclusive education” and “least restrictive environment” differently. Having developed an inclusionary model, Lipsky and Gartner (1996) showed full support for school restructuring that does not exclude students with special needs. Their definition of inclusive education include “quality education that is both individual and integrated” in the same classroom regardless of student abilities (Lipsky & Gartner, 1996). To them, a least restrictive environment meant a general classroom that is adaptive to students with disabilities rather than segregated environment.…

    The main topic in the debate is whether the students are actually benefiting from inclusion classes or if it is causing more harm than good. Inclusion classes affect all parties involved including disabled students, students without disabilities, and teachers.
