Social exclusion has a myriad of negative effects on students' psychological and social well-being. One way to combat such negative effects is to raise awareness about social exclusion in schools. Here, we describe and evaluate a training program that was carried out across schools in The Netherlands. The program relies on basic experiential…

Community colleges have a significant role in preparing early childhood educators who will likely one day teach in inclusive classrooms. Inclusive education models educate children with disabilities alongside their non-disabled peers, promoting acceptance, decreasing discrimination, and fostering a society in which everyone lives and works…

The unwillingness of the Somali community to finance higher education has largely gone unnoticed within the academic literature and government policy documents. This study explores the role of religion and the influence of Shari'ah scholars on the use of interest-bearing student loans within the Somali community. In the absence of any theoretical…

Propensity score matching was used to create intervention and comparison groups to compare academic outcomes of students with disabilities in the U.S. state of Indiana placed in more inclusive settings with those placed in less inclusive settings. Student and school demographic and outcome data were analyzed from the eighth grade in 2013 through…

There has been an increased push for science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) students and scientists to be trained in science communication. Science communication researchers have outlined various models of how scientists interact with nonscientists--including deficit, dialogue, and inclusive approaches. We wanted to analyze…

The purpose of this study was to create a third space between a teacher educator and an undergraduate student to explore teaching experiences while in high school within non-formal education (NFE) programs in which we participated. We developed a series of five prompts that we responded to individually, meeting via Zoom to discuss our experiences…

In this article, I re-think official educational organization toward friction-zones. Thinking with a swimming event in physical education, and Deleuze's notion of pure difference and its accompanying characteristics, non-linearity, decentralization, pluralistic knowledge, virtual and actual multiplicities, nomadic waiting, and open ends, I outline…

In recent years there has been a gradual increase in scientific production on the application of Augmented Reality (AR) in students with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). However, a global picture of the field of study has not been established to allow us to study its evolution. As a result, we propose to analyse conceptually, intellectually and…

Implementation of any inclusive policy is dependent on longstanding conceptions, beliefs, and public discourses on schooling, learning, and including children in mainstream schooling. The adoption of inclusive education in education policies in France and the United Kingdom requires discursive support to reshape the meaning and content of…

This research highlights inadequate training for higher education supervisors, which has been exacerbated by the "Great Resignation." This qualitative study explored the lived experiences of higher education supervisees to uncover ways supervisors can best support their employees and work culture. Themes, implications for practice, and…

Ideas and practices associated with inclusive education have featured prominently in the policies and reforms of successive Australian federal governments since the 1990s, yet there are limited historical analyses of these developments. This paper analyses federal and national inclusive education policies in Australia spanning from 1992 to the…

Twenty years after the Lisbon strategy, education policy in the European Union (EU) is at a critical juncture, with a new set of strategic goals endorsed for the 2021-2030 decade. This article examines the complex interplay of ideas, institutions and actors, in articulating education policy priorities in the new European Education Area (EEA).…

In this study, the difference between fine motor skills and attention levels of children with mild intellectual disabilities (MID) who get education in inclusive classrooms and special education schools and the relationship between fine motor skills and attention levels were analysed. A total of 176 children with MID between the ages of 9-14, who…

Stemming from the premise that no single solution can be adequate to deal with today's intricate school contexts and that this complexity cannot be overcome, the teachers' pivotal role in guaranteeing quality inclusive education has been extensively acknowledged. As a result, literature on teacher competency profiles has flourished in recent…

The Pacific Regional Education Framework (PacREF) 2018-2030 proposes an ambitious agenda for a transformative and sustainable educational intervention across 15 countries. This paper discusses an approach to inclusive education in the countries of the Pacific islands as they begin to engage with this educational framework. We argue that inclusive…
