Learning The Undeniable Truth About Inclusion
Every day, thousands of students with special needs are ushered into separate special education classrooms. They are taught differently, treated differently and participate in different school programs. Why is this segregated form of special education still the norm in American schools when there is undeniable truth about the practice of inclusion. Our unique panel of teachers and parents will outline the research, provide instructional strategies, demonstrate the application of assistive technology, and give personal accounts of inclusive education. Attendees will learn why and how schools can give students with special needs the appropriate education they deserve.
