The field of Environmental Education (EE) is facing multiple crises around the climate crisis and an overdue recognition of the racist and ableist assumptions within EE spaces (Bang et al., 2014; Miller, Schmidt). These two issues are profoundly intertwined with emotions of anger, fear, shame, and disillusionment. In EE teaching and learning,…

This conceptual methods article parallels remarks given at the 2022 American Association on Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities conference highlighting the importance of including the voices of people with intellectual disability in research processes. The purpose of this article was to put forth a call to action to disability researchers…

Students with mild disabilities are spending the majority of their school day in general education classrooms. However, their academic engagement and outcomes are not always favorable and teachers are often unprepared to present curricula in a way that is engaging and accessible for students at every skill level. A Theory of Academic Engagement…

This study highlights the nuanced ways ten undergraduate students who stutter can experience ableism. A critical framework of stuttering ableism at the community and public policy levels are used to interrogate how ableism oppresses persons who stutter. Inclusive language humanizes the experiences of participants who experienced an academic…

Catering for the mathematical needs of disabled learners equitably and productively requires the anti-ableist preparation and professional development of teachers. In CAPTeaM (Challenging Ableist Perspectives on the Teaching of Mathematics), we design tasks that emulate inclusion-related challenges from the mathematics classroom, and we engage…

The phenomenon of microaggressions is well established within the counseling literature, particularly as it relates to race, ethnicity, gender, and affectual orientation. However, research related to disability or ableist microaggressions is still in its infancy, so counseling professionals have limited information about experiences of disability…

In this article, there is a cripped arugmentation towards and away from performance as curricular. In other words, what we are trying to more fully grapple with is how curriculum within the school and otherwise becomes and is embodied within the body as a performative action towards and away from "dis"ability as a means of…

Lexism (the Othering of dyslexics) currently lacks a clear definition. In this conceptual article, I argue that Lexism does not require any such definition; indeed definitions generally can be unhelpful. To understand Lexism I provide examples of how we might use the concept in a series of hypothetical cases. Exemplars avoid the need for…

In "(Re)Imagining Inclusion for Children of Color with Disabilities," Soyoung Park argues that the disproportionate segregation and isolation of children of color with disabilities from their nondisabled peers is the product of an educational system which upholds a racist, ableist agenda. Park puts forth a visionary call to end these…

Many in the autistic community have expressed concerns regarding the use of behavioral interventions with autistic children, suggesting that these interventions may not be socially valid. Though behavioral interventions have evolved to be more naturalistic and child-centered, little structured research has been done to explicitly seek autistic…

This article uses 'wellbeing' as deployed within UK higher education as a starting point for examining the relationship between disability and the university. We explore various strands of scholarship that seek to critique wellbeing, universities, and/or connections between disability and these institutions. Work on 'wellbeing' identifies the…

In this paper, I draw from an in-school music research-creation project to consider the complex, racist-ableist politics of failure in the early childhood classroom. I theorise failure as it unfolds through anxiety, which I conceptualise as an affect of failure, to discuss both the perverse possibilities and perilous precarities of (neuro)queer…

The article presents a systematic review of studies on the construction of current policy on labor inclusion, highlighting the role of the arts in the international landscape. The aim of this article is to analyze studies that address inclusive labor policies, highlighting the arts as a labor sector in the international context. A systematic…

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (2020) estimated about 24% of adults in the United States live with a disability. However, the literature suggested only 4.4% of healthcare workers reported having a disability in the United States. Stigmatization and ableism have likely led to nurses hiding their disabilities while practicing,…

The social model of disability assumes that the university environment sometimes creates disability related obstacles and barriers. This study investigated faculty members' attitudes toward students with disabilities and the latter's capability to succeed in Saudi Arabian universities. The study surveyed 719 faculty members and conducted…
