Abstract

Practitioners, scholars, and teacher education students alike can celebrate reading Exploring Inclusive Educational Practices through Professional Inquiry. This rich array of case scenarios both illuminates and elaborates the meaning of inclusion in today's schools and tomorrow's visions. Twenty-five stories from parents, teachers, school principals, and specialists highlight the kind of experiential knowledge that won't be found in typical research reports and district documents about inclusive education. What happens to real people-students and their families-doesn't always resemble policies that can look so good on paper. This book makes a wonderful contribution to better understandings of the challenges of inclusion as well as the commitments positioned alongside values in order to meet those challenges. There are brave and spirited people in these pages-not the least of whom are the children themselves. Professor Luanna H. Meyer, PhD Director, Jessie Hetherington Centre for Educational Research Victoria University, New Zealand This is a book on inclusive education that leaves you with hope and ideas for action. It takes a very difficult and highly charged topic and demonstrates that it is possible to see both the trees and the forest. Michael Fullan Professor Emeritus OISE/University of Toronto We are reminded in the commentaries parents share in this book of how their passionate commitment to good education and their ideas make inclusion work. The case-study approach reveals the critical importance of their, and many other perspectives in finding solutions to what are so often dismissed as irresolveable dilemmas. They aren't, and this book models exactly the kinds of conversations we need in schools across the country to challenge all of us to stay the course. It's a must-read for anyone who wants to make diversity and inclusion a reality in public education today. Michael Bach Executive Vice-President Canadian Association for Community Living.

Abstract

Cet ouvrage analyse la transition des jeunes adultes handicapés vers l’enseignement tertiaire et vers l’emploi. Il analyse les politiques développées par plusieurs pays de l’OCDE et identifie les tendances récentes en termes d’accès à l’éducation et à l’emploi ainsi que les meilleures politiques et pratiques en matière de transition. Quels facteurs facilitent ou entravent la transition vers l’enseignement tertiaire et l’emploi ? Quelles sont les forces et les faiblesses des politiques et des soutiens existants à l’égard des jeunes adultes handicapés ? Quelles stratégies sont développées par les lycées et les établissements d’enseignement tertiaire pour faciliter cette transition et quelles sont leurs forces et leurs faiblesses ? Il montre que l’accès à l’enseignement tertiaire des jeunes adultes handicapés a progressé de manière significative depuis dix ans. Toutefois, en dépit des progrès effectués, la transition vers l’enseignement tertiaire persiste à être plus difficile pour les jeunes adultes handicapés que pour l’ensemble des jeunes adultes. Les étudiants handicapés ont aussi moins de chances de réussir dans l’enseignement tertiaire ou d’accéder à l’emploi que leurs pairs non handicapés. Le livre propose également des recommandations à l’attention des gouvernements et des institutions éducatives. Ces recommandations entendent mettre les jeunes adultes handicapés à égalité de chances en termes de réussite et de transition et d’optimiser ainsi la concrétisation de leur droit à l’éducation et à l’inclusion.

Abstract

This text provides strategies pre-service and in-service teachers can use to apply the principles of Universal Design for Learning (UDL) to their lesson planning. UDL lesson planning considers 'up front' potential barriers that could limit access to instruction for some learners and helps teachers brainstorm possible solutions before lessons begin.
