Differentiated school education: individualization and didactic personalization.
Not all students in a classroom learn a subject in the same way or share the same level of ability. Teachers must consider a wide range of learning modalities (visual, auditory, kinesthetic, etc.) in designing instruction. They have to know their students well so they can provide each one with experiences and tasks that will improve learning.
This sheet has three main objectives:
The logic of inclusion as a concrete answer to the socialization of the deficit.
When inclusion is achieved, society must ensure the fundamental rights of education, training and work that are carried out in support of family, school and job placement. Promoting inclusiveness means, therefore, to improve the quality of life of all human beings, their well-being, to create a world of humanity, to recognize the unrepeatability, irreducibility and inviolability of every individual.
This sheet intends to demonstrate how inclusive logics seem to be able to respond today to the need for change that is relevant to this era, affirming the importance of valorising each individual and giving everyone the opportunity to actively participate in social life.
Inclusion reverses the idea of better or worse, superior or inferior, rich and poor, suitable or unsuitable, giving equal dignity to all men and contributing to the creation of a new democratic society founded on cooperation, tolerance, acceptance and equality in diversity.
Educational policies and integration practices
This part of course analyzes the development of policies and instruments to protect the rights of people with disabilities, starting with the first international classification of disability in 1980 by the WHO to the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities adopted in 2006 by the General Assembly of United Nations. It therefore addresses a comparative analysis of educational policies and integration practices for people with disabilities in European states.
The aims of this sheet are essentially three:
Presentation
In learning each learner needs attention to his specialty. In this sense, perhaps, talking about students with Special Educational Needs, means talking about all the students. Creating a learning environment that is attentive to everyone's specialty means creating a truly inclusive education for everyone. But the question is: do teaching strategies exist that can really create an inclusive environment to such an extent that there is no need to make any other choice than to implement them for everyone? And if they exist how do they apply?
How can the inclusive logic seem to be able to respond today to the need for change, typical of this era, affirming the importance of valuing each individual and giving everyone the opportunity to participate actively in social life?
Aims
1. To know and put into practice support activities, support, facilitating techniques and cooperatives to help children with Special Educational Needs.
2. To reflect on the differences and the common elements in the integration policies adopted by the European countries.
