“Tell me and I'll forget; show me and I may remember; involve me and I'll understand.”
Inclusive education is a process where the school system strategic plans, and policies adapt and change to include teaching strategies for a more diverse range of children and their families. Inclusive practices involve diverse students with highly complex learning needs, including students with varied ethnic, linguistic, socioeconomic and ability components.
3 types of students Inclusive Education is meant to serve are:
1. Learning disabled students
2. Mentally disabled students
3. Low Soc economic status
2 Characteristics of Inclusive Education are:
1.School as a community
2.Students acting as problem solvers in teams
A strategy that helps students become more responsible and effective in the inclusive process.
Using a discussion that allows students to speak their mind, by getting everyone on the same level. This allows students not only to hear the teacher,but also listen to their classmates.
