Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The focus of this study was to examine the attitudes held by general education teachers toward inclusion programs. Teachers’ attitudes can impact students’ achievement and the efficacy of programs if teachers’ attitudes result in programs that are not implemented with fidelity. The attitudes held by teachers toward students can impact all levels of learning and even student socialization. The peer-to-peer interactions can be impacted by teachers’ attitudes because teachers control the culture and climate of the class, which impacts the achievement of students. If the general education teacher holds negative attitudes towards inclusion, these negative perceptions can present as inclusion programs being implemented without fidelity. There needs to be teacher “buy in” to implement programs. This would then imply that general education teachers who hold positive attitudes toward inclusion programs have the potential to provide a benefit toward the programs and student achievement. Just as negative attitudes held by teachers can negatively impact student achievement, positive teacher attitudes have the potential to positively benefit student achievement and learning experiences. Since 1975, educational institutions have had to address how best to meet the needs of students with disabilities. These efforts have taken individuals from educating students in a specialized setting solely for students with disabilities. Today, there is a spectrum of settings for students with disabilities that range from self-contained classes comprised solely of students with disabilities to the general education classroom setting. These changes to the educational system were not born from the belief that vulnerable communities should have the same access and rights as all others. Rather, these educational gains were made through legal battles, civil rights actions, and legislation. So, it is under this landscape that a community of people who were once excluded from school and community were able to participate in the public education system. The researcher conducted this quantitative research by the survey method. Analysis of the data determined what prevalent themes emerged from the data and a comparison of the data.

Book excerpt: The purpose of the study was to examine the attitudes of general educators toward movement of students with special needs into general education classrooms. This study was conducted using a descriptive quantitative approach with a survey design. The total number of participants was 73 with a total return rate of 53%. Teachers were surveyed on their (a) attitudes towards students with disabilities in inclusive settings, (b) beliefs about professional roles and responsibilities, and (c) beliefs about the efficacy of inclusion. Time spent with special education teachers tended to increase teacher beliefs that students with mild to moderate disabilities can be more effectively educated in regular classrooms as opposed to special education classrooms. The vast majority of teachers responded positively to their roles and responsibilities with students with disabilities. General education teachers showed a positive belief in the efficacy of inclusion, as 80% indicated that they believed inclusion was effective due to the social skills that can be learned. Almost 20% of participants did not believe that students with mild or moderate disabilities should be educated in the general education classroom to the fullest extent possible. It is recommended that administrators address the attitudes of general education teachers. This could be done through in-service training, mentoring and allotting time to collaborate with special education teachers. More research should be done to determine reasons why teacher attitudes are negative, so that schools may work to maintain positive attitudes and successful inclusion programs.

This book was released on 2000 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Teachers' attitudes and beliefs have been a focus in the study of successful teaching practices in schools. Today, many children with disabilities are included in general education classroom settings. Teachers' attitudes and beliefs toward inclusion and children with disabilities play a central role in successful inclusion. This research examined preservice teachers' attitudes and beliefs toward persons with disabilities and inclusion of children with disabilities into general education classrooms, as well as factors associated with these attitudes and beliefs. Major findings of this study were that: 1) preservice teachers' attitudes and beliefs toward persons with disabilities were predicted by their personal relationships with persons who have disabilities and number of special education courses taken, 2) preservice teachers' attitudes and beliefs toward inclusion were predicted by their number of special education courses taken, personal relationships with persons who have disabilities, and educational level, and 3) preservice teachers' attitudes and beliefs toward inclusion were strongly correlated with preservice teachers' attitudes and beliefs toward persons with disabilities. This study suggests the need to provide more qualitative, practical experience and course content related to children with disabilities and their inclusion in teacher education programs and future studies to investigate the relationships between other variables (e.g., preservice program organization) and preservice teachers' attitudes and beliefs toward inclusion and persons with disabilities.

This book was released on 2024 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 1975, the Education for All Handicapped Children Act was enacted, the United States public school system and teacher preparation programs have been trying to prepare teachers and preservice teachers to teach in inclusive classrooms. Teacher preparation programs across the country started to include an introductory course on special education as a requirement for general education degree programs. Research in the 90s has shown these semester long introductory courses improved the beliefs and attitudes preservice teachers have towards inclusion and students with disabilities; however, the same research articles that prove the increase in positive attitudes also recommend teacher preparation programs need to integrate special needs topics more into the general education courses. Through the review of eight different research articles, there will be an examination of the different approaches teacher preparation programs have used to help preservice teachers feel prepared to teach in an inclusive classroom. The articles are split amongst three different categorized themes. The first approach was the implementation of an introductory special education course. The second approach was the addition of field experience on top of the semester long introductory special education course. The last approach focused on integrating special education and inclusion topics into the general education courses.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prior to federal law PL-94-142, children with disabilities typically were excluded from regular, mainstream classes. This law emphasized the least restrictive environment since research had shown that all children benefited from inclusive learning environments. In the late 1990s, New Jersey was cited as having too high a proportion of children with disabilities in segregated placements. New Jersey received a State Improvement Grant (SIG) to increase the number of students with disabilities in regular education classes. This dissertation was designed to evaluate one aspect of local school districts' program initiatives to achieve this end: teachers' attitudes and perceptions regarding inclusion. Teachers are responsible for the daily implementation of inclusion practices. Their attitudes, perceptions, and beliefs are crucial for the success of inclusion. Although findings from previous research have indicated that teachers favor inclusion, their willingness to implement inclusive practices depends on the availability of supports and resources, as well as the attitudes of school personnel. A total of 856 general education, special education, and special area teachers from seven districts in New Jersey were surveyed regarding: (a) their attitudes and beliefs about inclusion; (b) their perceived administrative support; (c) their perceived ease in meeting the needs of students with disabilities in their classroom; and (d) the factors that have helped or hindered their ability to include students with disabilities in their classroom. Quantitative (Pearson product-moment correlation, multiple regression, independent samples t test) and qualitative (content analysis) methods were used to analyze the survey data. Special education teachers had more positive attitudes toward inclusion than did general education teachers. Relationships between teachers' attitudes and perceptions, and administrative support were found for general education teachers but not for special education teachers. Years of experience working with students with disabilities did not influence these relationships. Teachers identified training, positive attitudes, and support from colleagues, administrators, and other school personnel as factors facilitating inclusive practices. Barriers to implementation included large class size, insufficient planning time, lack of support from colleagues and school administrators, student behavior and ability, and teachers' negative attitudes. Implications for practice are discussed for administrators and school psychologists.

Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to (a) investigate current teachers' attitudes toward inclusion, and to (b) explore possible difference in the general and special education teachers' attitudes toward inclusion of students with disabilities in the integrated education classroom. A total of 10 participants from a large mid-western state university participated in this study. All ten participants were in-service teachers enrolled in graduate classes. The findings of this study indicated that teachers had positive attitudes toward inclusion of students with disabilities in general education classroom. Some differences, however, were found between the attitudes of special and regular education teachers. Special educators were more supportive to full inclusion than the general educators. The integration of information concerning teachers' beliefs/points of view about inclusion may help practitioners to design educational settings that enhance all students' academic performance.
