Author(s): Sumbul Akhlaque Khan and Saraswati Sharma
Abstract: Inclusion education means that all students are part of the school community, regardless of their strengths and weaknesses. Students with disabilities do not need to be placed in a different institutions. They deserve to have full access to all resources and social interactions that are present in the general education classroom. The inclusion of students with disabilities in the general education classroom is a current legal requirement in the United States according to the nation’s special education law identified as Individuals with Disabilities Education Act, or IDEA (“Sec. 300.8 Child with a Disability.†n.d.). Originally, the concept of inclusive education materialized over issues with segregating disabled students in public schools. Children with disabilities faced issues such as school removal, segregated classrooms, or no in-class support. The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) was created to ensure all children receive a free and appropriate public education. Within the legislation is a mandate requiring schools educate a child with a disability alongside children without disabilities as much as possible. Today, becoming a special education teacher means learning inclusive teaching in a special education degree program.
