  • Unfortunately, many believe this way. I believe all students can be included to some extent. Mitzi

  • In my experience, early childhood and kindergarten classrooms are often the ideal place to include children with disabilites (age appropriate, of course!) since the emphasis is on Developmentally Appropriate practices that focus on individual children's needs. Instructional techniques are usually flexible, hands-on, generally shorter in length, and incorporate movement. Inclusion at all levels is also a great way to develop caring, compassion, kindness and acceptance in and for all children. Amy

  • Nice job! I used to feel this way prior to taking all the classes in my special education program. I think all teachers need to be trained to work with students with special needs.

  • Nice job. You had some realistic points from the view of a parent of a child without a disability. Sensitive topic. J.E.G.

  • Ladies, Great job on the video. You all provided a wonderful perspective from the general educator and parent's point of view. These are battles educators battle on a day to day basis.

  • Nice job!! You made some good points about the barriers to inclusion. I know that lots of general education teachers really feel this way. Isn't it sad?

  • The prospective of a parent with a child with special needs was not included and should have been.....

  • Ladies! Great Job on the presentation. Jen and Jen did a great job expressing concernes which educators deal with on a daily basis! Brooks

  • This provides pertinent information and concerns educators and parents face on a day to day basis. The law says one thing yet their seems confusion and inappropriate training for the general educators.

  • This is exactly why colleges must change their reg. ed. curriculum. All classes are special ed classes. Being unprepared is unfair to the teachers and the students. However, it's the negative attitudes of some of teachers which should not be tolerated. It shouldn't be "my" children, "their" children, it's our children.
