Issues of Inclusion
[ send me this paper ]
The Education of the Handicapped Act enacted in 1975 initiated a change in the educational system of the United States. Full inclusion began to take hold in the 1980's. Full inclusion is a term used to describe the placement of children with disabilities in a regular education classroom with children who do not have disabilities. While the normalization of children's lives through their education placement is important, students' education needs should take priority over the philosophical aspects of placement. Many would say that a policy of segregation would be in violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990 and against the principle of least restrictive environment. Placing all children with disabilities in general classroom settings, without regard to individual needs, because it reflects current ideas about best practice, does not support the least restrictive environment concept nor the goal of providing appropriate educational programs for all children. This 5 page paper explores the issue of inclusion on disabled and non-disabled students. Bibliography lists 8 sources.
