Hi all. I am currently a grad student working on my master’s in spec ed. I have selected the topic of inclusion for my research project. I’m not sure what I want to be answered. What about……Inclusion: Is this the best placement for children with LD? Any input will be appreciated.
Thanks
Mona
When deciding on the best placement you really need to look at the individual student. Some students with LD thrive in an inclusive setting. Being able to learn and work in the same classroom as non-disabled peers really helps them learn. Other students can not work in the same class as their non-disabled peers. There is too much of a distraction created by all of the other students. I have taught both types of students. You really just need to work with the individual student to find out what is best for him/her.
