Course Description
The CRPD states that the government “shall take appropriate measures to
employ teachers, including teachers with disabilities, who are qualified in sign language
and/or Braille, and to train professionals and staff who work at all levels of education.
Such training shall incorporate disability awareness and the use of appropriate
augmentative and alternative modes, means and formats of communication, educational
techniques and materials to support persons with disabilities.” The proposed change in
nomenclature shows that the terms -- ‘special education’ and ‘inclusive education’ are
not synonymous.
Inclusive education, on the other hand stems from the view of disability as
resulting from the interaction between the environment and the condition of the person
with disability. Resulting interventions under inclusive education focus on adjustments in
the learning environment as well as teaching strategies that include persons with
disabilities in general/regular classrooms.
Course Outcomes
The author prompted that graduates have the ability to demonstrate knowledge,
skills and dispositions under the following domains: a. Basic/Foundation: Provide
respectful and meaningful learning experiences and collaborative opportunities for
students with additional needs and their families. b. Learner Development and Individual
Learning Differences: Respond effectively to educational needs of students with
additional needs. c. Learning Environments: Create safe, inclusive, culturally responsive
learning environments for students with additional needs. d. Curricular Content
Knowledge: Use knowledge of general and specialized curricula to individualize learning
for students with additional needs. e. Instructional Planning and Strategies: Use
evidence-based instructional strategies to maximize learning opportunities for students
with additional needs. f. Assessment: Use multiple methods of assessment and multiple
data sources to make sound educational decisions for students with additional needs. g.
Professional Learning and Practice: Demonstrate reflective thinking and professional
self-direction.
Intended Users

Components (Modules)
Special Features
In Special and Inclusive Education, the schools are accepting unconditionally all
children into regular classes (online and modular classes) providing as much support to
children, teachers and schools as necessary to ensure that all children can participate in
their classes.
The advent of the 21st century requires new perspective and directions in special
education to meet the needs of the disadvantaged children against the persistent
challenges and demands of the new millennium.

VLOGGING
PROFESSIONAL EDUCATION
PED 16
Using a vlog to demonstrate an idea also gives students the ability to watch and listen to the videos as many times
as they want. It also gives parents an opportunity to see what their child is learning in school. Vlogging builds trust
with our students. It gives them something to look back at, keeps them creative
and it helps improve their speaking ability. This also builds relationships and demonstrates students' knowledge or
expertise.
The reason why the author use vlogging as one of her assessment tool is that vlogging nowadays is so influential
because it gives a sense of transparency in communication to our students, deviating from a lot of time thinking up a
unique tutorial or unboxing ideas.

Preface
Inclusive education means that all students attend and are welcomed by their
neighborhood schools in age-appropriate, regular classes and are supported to learn,
contribute and participate in all aspects of the life of the school.
It is about how we develop and design our schools, classrooms, programs and
activities so that all students learn and participate together.
Inclusive education is about ensuring access to quality education for all students
by effectively meeting their diverse needs in a way that is responsive, accepting,
respectful and supportive. Students participate in the education program in a common
learning environment with support to diminish and remove barriers and obstacles that
may lead to exclusion.
It is carried out in a common learning environment; that is, an educational setting
where students from different backgrounds and with different abilities learn together in an
inclusive environment. Common learning environments are used for the majority of the
students’ regular instruction hours and may include classrooms, libraries, gym,
performance theatres, music rooms, cafeterias, playgrounds and the local community. A
common learning environment is not a place where students with intellectual disabilities
or other special needs learn in isolation from their peers.

The next section is the content of this unit. It contains vital information of the
topics based on the learning outcomes. Please read the content.
Inclusive education is about looking at the ways our school, classrooms, programs and
lessons are designed so that all children can participate and learn. Inclusion is also about
finding different ways of teaching so that classrooms actively involve all children. It also
means finding ways to develop friendships, relationships and mutual respect between al
children, and between children and teachers in the school.
It is not just for some children. Being included is not something that a child must be ready
for. All children are at all times ready to attend regular schools and classrooms. Their
participation is not something that must be earned.
Inclusive education is a way of thinking about how to be creative to make our schools a
place where all children can participate. Creativity may mean teachers learning to teach in
different ways or designing their lessons so that all children can be involved.
As a value, inclusive education reflects the expectation that we want all of our children to
be appreciated and accepted throughout life.
Does Inclusion Education mean that all children should never leave their regular
classrooms?
Inclusive education means that all children are educated in regular classrooms. It does
not, however, mean that individual children cannot leave the classroom for specific
reasons. For example, a child may require one-on-one assistance in a particular subject.
This may or may not be happening during regular class time. Once schools are inclusive,
serious thought is given to how often a child may be out of regular classroom and the
reasons that this may be happening. It does not mean that children with certain
characteristics (for example, those who have disabilities) are grouped together in
separate classrooms for all or part of the school day.
Over the years, the benefits of providing an inclusive education to all children have
been shown. Inclusive education (when practiced well) is very important because:
• All children are able to part of their community and develop a sense of belonging
and become better prepared for life in the community as children and adults. • It
provides better opportunities for learning. Children with varying abilities are often
better motivated when they learn in classes surrounded by other children. • The
expectations of all the children are higher. Successful inclusions attempt to develop
an individual’s strengths and gifts.
• It allows children to work on individual goals while being with other students their
own age.
• It encourages the involvement of parents in the education of their children and the
activities of their local schools.
• It fosters a culture of respect and belonging. It also provides the opportunity to learn
about and accept individual differences.
• It provides all children with opportunities to develop friendships with one another.
Friendships provide role models and opportunities for growth.
One of the most important principles of inclusive education is that no two learners are
alike, and so inclusive schools place great importance on creating opportunities for
students to learn and be assessed in a variety of ways. Teachers in inclusive schools
therefore must consider a wide range of learning modalities (visual, auditory,
kinesthetic, etc.) in designing instruction. Certainly, this enhances the way in which
educators provide supports and accommodations for students with disabilities, but it
also diversifies the education experience of all students.
Inclusive education for students with disabilities can only be successful when those
students feel that they are truly a part of the school community. This requires open and
honest discussion about difference, and an institutional respect for people of all
backgrounds and abilities. In inclusive schools, the establishment of such a climate
benefits everyone by fostering an environment where students and their families are
valued for who they are.
In the past, special education often involved the segregation of students with
disabilities for the purpose of specialized instruction. Not only does that model of
special education in a separate setting deprive students with disabilities of interaction
with their peers and full access to the curriculum, it can also involve duplicate systems
and resources that
