TSLB3132 Inclusive Education: Passive student and challenges in ensuring successful implementation of Inclusive Ed Programmes

Questions
1)Osman is a pupil with special needs. He has been included in the mainstream class. He is a quiet and shy boy. He is only sometimes able to follow the teaching and learning in class and many a time is lost especially when the mainstream teacher only uses the English textbook when teaching.

As a mainstream teacher, discuss with example how you can ensure the involvement of all pupils in your teaching and learning process using multisensory teaching.


Answers:

Task #1: Osman needs help

Trait 1: quiet and shy

1.find out topic that interests him- mandatory five-minute talk from a student before each class on a topic of interest

2.conduct small group activities – animals in the jungle – assign Osman as the leader- to lead the discussion and assign jobs to team members

3. pick Osman to answer teacher’s oral question in the class – give praises and do not over bash his comments

 

Trait 2: sometimes can follow, sometimes not because teacher is boring using only textbook

Prepare teaching aids that suits the lesson- animals in the jungle- prepare visual cards to attract students’ attention- telling the stories of the jungle using sock puppets – assign groupwork for students to create an animal sock puppet with the given materials.

 

Use realia for possible topic like fruits – allow students to touch the fruits while teacher explains about the fruits – to get students know the taste of fruit- bring a knife to peel the fruits so that students can taste it - assign groupwork for students to draw a mind map about the fruits: taste, shape, colour, countries that plant etc - assign Osman to become teacher’s helper by distributing the materials to each group to increase his sense of belonging and develop friendship in the class.



2)Analyse and discuss the issues and challenges faced by mainstream teachers and school administrators in ensuring the successful implementation of Inclusive Education Programmes.

Task #2 Challenges of successful implementation of inclusive ed program

Mainstream teachers

2. Nid to prepare special instructions for autism – no eye contact with the teacher- sometimes misses teacher’s oral instructions- teacher needs to take the effort to write down the instructions on board – set time limit for tasks so that they able to complete task on time – delay the progress of teaching and learning

 

3. Teacher needs to prepare Individual Educational Plan for each special need students – time and effort – to plan and to prepare special intervention and materials just for one student with short objectives to fulfil – monitor their progress from time to time to help them achieve the LS for the mainstream students – teachers need to sacrifice their time to do all that

 

4. Challenges in developing the bond between mainstream ss and SENS- autistic children do not mingle well with other students- animals in the jungle- conduct group discussion and assign SENS as the group leader- assign SENS as teacher’s helper – do any action so that the mainstream students do not isolate SENS because negative learning environment will subsequently influence the learning of SENS

 

5. Accountable for reporting SENS progress after a term -if the progress is not met, teachers will be held accountable by the headmaster and have to write a report

2. nid to allocate funds to buy special books for SENS – dyslexia- purchase books with less words and more pictures specially designed to teaching and learning of dyslexia.

3. Hire a few special ed teachers, personnel or teacher assistant to aid the mainstream teacher in preparing teaching aids, designing special interventions or while conducting interventions for SENS- satistfy SENS needs to achieve Learning Objective- Autism- teacher assistant to assist him in reading comprehension, completing written task, monitor his progress and reporting his progress to mainstream teacher after the class.
