Book excerpt: Grounded in the reform effort of a large state university with a history of excellence in teacher education, this book provides teacher educators and institutions with a valuable resource for navigating the choppy waters of reform. Contributors, all involved in the reform process, tell the story of the University of Florida's efforts in the mid-1990s to unify general and special education in its teacher education program. The book examines various aspects of the reform process, explains challenges faced by teacher educators within today's context and particularly within the context of large research institutions, presents strategies leaders use to keep reform on track in spite of challenges, and includes detailed descriptions of the nature and structure of the reformed program. Also included are valuable insights of teacher education experts from other institutions to contextualize the particulars of this reform within the national education and teacher education scenes.

Book Synopsis Inclusive Education by : Aimee Howley
Download or read book Inclusive Education written by Aimee Howley. This book was released on 2020-01-01. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book answers two questions: What does the implementation of inclusive education require of a system of education and all parts of the system? How do various parts of the education system act on their commitment to inclusive educational practice? Decades after major legislation (i.e., the Civil Rights Act, the Elementary and Secondary Education Act, and the Education for All Handicapped Children Act) made high-quality education a fundamental right for all children in the United States, the dream of diverse, inclusive, democratic schooling has yet to be realized. Nevertheless, some classrooms, schools, districts, states, and universities have made progress. Inclusive Education: A Systematic Perspective explores the theoretical implications of inclusive practice as well as illustrative case studies and evaluation findings from states, educator preparation programs, districts, and schools that have reframed their work around the principles of inclusive practice. Whether these organizations position the work as “social justice education,” “culturally responsive teaching,” or “inclusion,” their efforts lead in the same direction—toward higher quality and more equitable education for all. The chapters will be relevant to graduate students, faculty members, and education leaders, at all levels, who seek a comprehensive overview of the commitment and practice of “inclusive education”. Chapters vary in their approaches to the topic, some presenting theoretical underpinnings, others describing practices or programs at particular sites, others reporting findings from empirical studies, and edited interviews with state and district leaders of inclusive-education initiatives. The book explores why inclusion is important and how it can be accomplished.

Book Synopsis Teachers' Preparation for the Implementation of Inclusive Education in Primary Schools in Eswatini by : S’lungile K. Thwala
Download or read book Teachers' Preparation for the Implementation of Inclusive Education in Primary Schools in Eswatini written by S’lungile K. Thwala. This book was released on 2022-03-04. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about inclusive education, and is designed to prepare teachers to effectively teach exceptional children in primary schools in Southern Africa. It identifies key concepts associated with inclusive education, and discusses these in relation to issues in the reform of teacher education. It argues that the reform of teacher education for inclusive education is an important activity in improving educational equity. The theoretical framework for inclusion is outlined and examples of how teachers might engage in more inclusive practice are presented, as are the benefits of inclusive education. The book argues that preparation for inclusive education requires a new framework that calls for partnership between universities and schools. It is envisaged that the book will fill a gap in literature and practice, thereby enabling policy makers, college administrators and lecturers to review policies, teacher education curricula and pedagogical issues pertaining to preparing teachers for working in inclusive schools. As such, it will provide a springboard for teachers’ colleges and universities to improve teacher preparation for inclusive education.
