Basic school teachers' attitudes towards inclusive education in Ghana
2011
ABSTRACT Attitudes towards Inclusive Education are extremely complex and vary from one teacher to another. This is because traditionally, children with Special Education Needs (SEN) have been segregated into separate learning environments. This practice is now being questioned by teachers who believe it is an infringement of the rights of children with SEN. The proponents of Inclusive Education (IE) are of the opinion that including students with disabilities into mainstream classrooms would maximise their learning experiences. The present study examined the attitudes of basic school teachers in mainstream classrooms towards Inclusive Education in Ghana. It also assessed the best learning e…
Distopía, eutopía y crisis social en el cine mainstream (Los casos de Los juegos del hambre y Del revés)
2018
espanolEn el marco de un mundo globalizado, la aparente "desideologizacion" que acompana a los bienes culturales actuales, sirve a los propositos de reproduccion del sistema capitalista, entendido este dentro de su vertiente cultural actual como un sistema omnipresente y omniabarcante. En este sentido, los productos culturales del mainstream estadounidense, continuan constituyendo, aun a dia de hoy, uno de los principales pilares a traves de los cuales el sistema se representa a si mismo, proponiendo y defendiendo determinados modos de vida, en concreto, el American Way of Life. En el actual contexto, el mainstream cinematografico, a traves de productos como “Los Juegos del Hambre” (The Hun…
Research-based reflections about character education: myths, challenges and international perspectives
2018
At present, youngsters’ character and virtue education issues are widely discussed in Latvia and in English-speaking academic environment. Given the existing criticism of these concepts, the research question was: what are the main misunderstandings about the nature of character and virtue education? After clarifying the neo-Aristotelian understanding of these concepts, recent research in the field of character education and virtues is presented for deconstructing some of the myths related to it, due to conceptual, historical, moral and political misunderstandings (Kristjánsson, 2013). Real problems (historical, methodological and practical) faced by character education programs in mainstre…
La intervención posconflicto en el Derecho internacional: una auditoría de género
2013
Que el conflicto armado tiene un impacto diferenciado de género es harto conocido. Demostrar además que la intervención posconflicto también lo tiene, constituye el objetivo de esta tesis. Por ello, partiendo de la potencialidad del gender mainstreaming o perspectiva transversal de género como herramienta fundamental para la gestión internacional de conflictos y, en línea con los postulados de la resolución 1325 del Consejo de Seguridad de Naciones Unidas sobre mujeres, paz y seguridad de 31 de octubre del año 2000, esta investigación adopta la forma de auditoría de género para trazar, mediante un análisis contextual (primera parte), jurídico (segunda parte) y clínico (tercera parte), la ev…

Mainstream educational enrollment for students with SEN in the EU
2018
La educación inclusiva es un objetivo importante en la agenda de la UE. La reforma educativa iniciada en los años 70 ha impactado en la actual matriculación educativa en Europa. Al margen de la convergencia de la Unión, no todos los países tienen tasas de inclusión similares y eso implica una Europa a diferentes velocidades, no como un proyecto político sino como un hecho. Después de que la integración fuera reformulada como inclusión y a la vez que se continúan redactando declaraciones inter y supranacionales, nos hemos preguntado acerca de las tasas de matriculación educativa para una mejor comprensión de la educación inclusiva europea. Han sido analizadas las tasas de 28 países. 25 de el…

Teacher attitudes towards inclusive education in Finland and Brandenburg, Germany and the issue of extra work
2016
Positive teacher attitudes are considered an important prerequisite for the successful inclusion of students with special educational needs in the mainstream classrooms. This study surveyed teacher opinions about inclusion in Finland (N = 298) and Brandenburg, Germany (N = 163), two educational systems in which the number of students transferred to segregated special education is exceptionally high in international comparison. For the measurement of attitudes, a 10-item scale, teachers’ attitudes towards inclusive education, was used. The results showed that Finnish teachers were more positive towards inclusion than Brandenburg teachers (d = 0.46). The Brandenburg teachers were especially w…
