Contextualizing Inclusive Education: Evaluating Old and New International Paradigms
Autor Mitchell David Editat de School Of Educa David Mitchell, David Mitchellen Limba Engleză Paperback – apr 2009
The over-arching theme of this book is that social, political, economic and cultural contexts play a central role in determining whether or not inclusive education is implemented in a range of regions and countries around the world. A series of original and provocative conclusions is presented, such as:
- inclusive education means creating a single system of education, which serves all children
- inclusive education is a site of conflicting paradigms of children with special needs, centering on a psycho-medical model and a socio-political model
- while many countries seem committed to inclusive education in their rhetoric, legislation and policies, in practice this often falls short.
