Inclusion

For successful execution in innovation, diversity and inclusion are common design elements in five theories: absorptive capacity, actor-network, agency, attachment, and attribution theories. Through these five theories, I would like to share my thoughts about why diversity and inclusion are common elements in five theories, which make a huge difference in innovation. Here are the details: Absorptive capacity supports diversity and inclusion that recognizes the value of new knowledge,…

Today, we scanned what will be covered in the model Interdisciplinary Perspectives on Inclusion (Disability Studies). This module will be explored historically, socially, culturally, politically, legally, globally and lastly educational perspectives. Does language matter, the difference of opinions and labels? Intrinsic to all of this was the big question "What is Inclusion?" A class discussion covered a lot of topics but for me, the most meaningful aspect was around the area of language and…

Inclusion is taking action to promote diversity within an organisation or community; this is generally achieved by presenting the organisation as a diverse place that is accepting and respectful of personal differences.

I was able to get a glance at the different types of disabilities students have. Because of the field hours I had to complete, I had the opportunity to observe an inclusion, self-contained and resource classroom along with interviewing those teachers. While doing my observations I was able to observe a student with autism in a inclusion classroom and in a resource classroom. Interviewing with these teachers, gave me an understanding of what these teachers went through every day with their…

Introduction/Purpose Inclusion education in higher education is relatively new in the United Kingdom. In the last 10 to 15 years’ the government required universities to make “reasonable adjustments” to accommodate students with special needs (Redpath, Kearney, Nicholl, Mulvenna, Wallace, & Martin, 2013). In Northern Ireland, there has been a 16% increase of students with disabilities enrolled into higher education. Since inclusion education is a new concept, many universities may not have an…

Seeds of Inclusion provided a variety of useful information that could be used now and in the future as an educator. At the beginning everyone participated in Zumba as an ice breaker. It was interesting to learn that the Zumba instructor, Kirk Nichols, did this in his kindergarten classroom. I never would have thought of doing Zumba with young children, nor would I ever had been comfortable to do it in a classroom. However, doing this in front of adults made me less worried about what others…

and fair chance to achieve positive results. The barriers to achieve this should be removed as soon as possible and implement equality. The legal implementation of this approach has very effective and significant changes to improve equality and inclusion. In my setting, everybody is given opportunity to work and progress. Appointments are done on the basis of their performance and experience and not on the bases of looks, gender, age or caste. The advantage of this approach is that this…

the past few years, a new movement has begun- full inclusion. The proponents of full inclusion have come from many backgrounds, but they all believe that self-containment classrooms are not the least restrictive environment for students with special needs. There are others who strongly argue against full inclusion with the primary claim that is not beneficial to any of the students or teachers involved. My views align fully with neither. As inclusion can be greatly beneficial, but it is not…

This paper will discuss the Individual with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), how it applies to special education, the group it applies to and how it affects the classroom. Secondly, it will define inclusion. Then, it will discuss the importance and impact, and the benefits and difficulties of inclusion on special education, as well as how it affects the classroom.

with Disabilities Education Improvement Act (IDEA) and No Child Left Behind Act (NCBL) mandating that all children are placed in a free and appropriate public education in the least restrictive environment (LRE) possible (Camargo et al., 2014). Inclusion in special education can be defined as, “the education of students with disabilities together with their nondisabled peers” (Carson, 2015, p. 1398). Special Education professionals are now legally and ethically obligated to place students in…
