A) Using academic referencing and a maximum of 750 words: Define what is meant by an inclusive learning and teaching environment Inclusive learning is when different strategies are used to approach the needs of the students, who come from different backgrounds, with different learning styles and they also have different abilities. There are different aspects of inclusive learning. For example you will be able to connect and engage with a variety of students or learners within the class. Another aspect is that the students or learners will feel comfortable in the classroom environment to voice their opinions/ideas/suggestions.

From my evalutation and observation from my tutor I was told that my personal strengths is that I am organised and I meet the needs of my learners by using the correct media. For example I use all the correct media to produce really good lessons and lesson plans. An example of this is when I use the internet to use prezi, and create professional presentations. I also communicated with other learning professionals to meet the learner needs and encourage my profession to my students. I inspired them to take a career in ICT, as my lessons have been really good and they enjoyed it. D) Using your reflective log highlight sections that show: How you have reviewed your own practice in planning to meet the needs of your learners (402:6) How you have analysed ways to improve your own practice in planning to meet the needs of your learners. (402:7) Date of Entry Date and nature of activity Reflection Feedback received from peers, teacher or learners Development points How and when changes/improvements …show more content…

I could also make a sheet with all the data showing the progress that I have made. I did a lot of things to meet the needs of my learners, by offering incentives and also extra classes for support. When the students in my lesson and class were asked if their needs were met, they replied saying that they found it more interesting in my class. They said that the environment was also another good thing that allowed them to learn more. You can see this from the average grading from my students; the grades are much better than before. One of the developments that could be made was that I could include a bit more advanced ICT level work so that it broadens their horizon. I will make more ICT sessions available with advanced levels of work so that they could learn

    The movement for inclusion in education has advanced since the years of special schools for children with disabilities. Although there have been significant changes to the laws protecting the rights of children with disabilities there remains an underlying debate as to whether these children should be in main stream classes.

It is evident whilst many challenges remain, schools should implement and deliver quality programs that reflect best practice policies.

  • Inclusion in the Public School Classroom

    1541 Words  | 4 Pages

    What do we do with children with disabilities in the public school? Do we include them in the general education class with the “regular” learning population or do we separate them to learn in a special environment more suited to their needs? The problem is many people have argued what is most effective, full inclusion where students with all ranges of disabilities are included in regular education classes for the entire day, or partial inclusion where children spend part of their day in a regular education setting and the rest of the day in a special education or resource class for the opportunity to work in a smaller group setting on specific needs. The need for care for children with identified disabilities both physical and learning continues to grow and the controversy continues.

  • Inclusion of Students with Disabilities

    In order for inclusion to be implemented properly it is important that teachers, parents, and administrators to know the definition of inclusion. An inclusion program means that the student spends all or most of their school time in the general education classroom rather than a self-contained classroom. However, the students will still receive the support and interventions they would have received in a self-contained classroom. There are different types of inclusive classrooms where different types of teaching occur. There is co-teaching where there is both a general education teacher and a special education teacher that co teach. Both will work with students that have an individualized education plan (IEP) and the student will receive more support. In addition, an inclusive classroom can have a general education teacher but has the special education teacher as a resource or aid, which qualifies as a collaborative model of inclusion.

  • Inclusion in the Classroom

    Inclusion in classrooms is defined as combining students with disabilities and students without disabilities together in an educational environment. It provides all students with a better sense of belonging. They will enable friendships and evolve feelings of being a member of a diverse community (Bronson, 1999). Inclusion benefits students without disabilities by developing a sense of helping others and respecting other diverse people. By this, the students will build up an appreciation that everyone has unique yet wonderful abilities and personalities (Bronson, 1999). This will enhance their communication skills later in life. Inclusive classrooms provide students with disabilities a better education on the same level as their peers. Since all students would be in the same educational environment, they would follow the same curriculum and not separate ones based on their disability. The main element to a successful inclusive classroom, is the teachers effort to plan the curriculum to fit all students needs. Teachers must make sure that they are making the material challenging enough for students without special needs and understandable to students with special needs. Inclusive classrooms are beneficial to students with and without special needs.

  • Creating a Positive Learning Environment

    1081 Words  | 3 Pages

    Education systems and services are integral to setting up a learning environment that maximises teaching and learning. I agree with Munro (2009) that being aware of what services, programs and support staff are available will be of great benefit to the learning environment, students and professional learning. I believe that adopting individual education plans, students learning profiles and modifying the curriculum can reduce the concern that some researches express that students are still being segregated from the classroom environment due to their “special learning needs”. These concerns are reduced by developing practices and adaptions that promote inclusion. I also believe that it allows for continual monitoring of students learning and progress and encourages critical reflection of teaching practices. Material and human resources that education systems provide encourage further professional development and practical ways to make adjustments and adaptions to classroom practices. I believe with the support of these systems inclusive education can be integrated seamlessly into my daily practice.
