Micro design in special education

2016

Since DIGCOMP the European Commission [1] has provided new causes of reflection and many competences indicators that can define a competent teacher, beyond a fruitful teaching within an inclusive perspective with the use of ICT.

The research adopts the EAS methodology (Episodes of Situated Learning, [10]) allowing us to test the flipped lesson [12] in "special contexts" where the teachers training is considered to be essential in inclusive perspective with ICT [3].

Tensions in the New Millennium : Inclusion Ideology and Education Policy in the Finnish Comprehensive School

This article examines the discrepancy between the ideology of inclusive education and the national education policy in the Finnish comprehensive school education. The study covers twenty years and is based on observations that indicate that the change in comprehensive school education, grounded in inclusive education ideals, has been slow. This has been the case, even though Finnish education policy has, on principle, committed to many international statements that promote inclusion ideology. The data consists primarily of statistics indicating the number of students in special education and national and international research on the subject. It confirms our supposition, but also the fact t…
