Edward Elgar Publishing Ltd (Verlag)
978-1-0353-2854-3 (ISBN)
This cutting-edge Research Agenda studies the people and processes that are involved in promoting equal opportunities within education. Employing the ecology of inclusion model, it provides insightful suggestions for implementing a coherent approach to the process of schooling for students with disabilities.
Leading experts in the field analyse the experiences of teachers, educational assistants, principals, students and families. They present novel methodologies for reducing the research-to-practice gap and improving educational provisions, emphasising the necessity of treating all students with equal importance. The Research Agenda delves into models and frameworks for inclusive education, investigating language barriers in secondary classrooms, effective teaching practices and accessible pedagogies. Ultimately, it advocates for a collective commitment to change within existing systems of learning.
Students and scholars of inclusive education, teaching and learning and the sociology of education will benefit from this illuminating Research Agenda. It is also an essential resource for practitioners in education policy, as well as leaders and educators within schools.
