This book is a good introduction to the issues that abound regarding Inclusive Education and Special Educational Needs.
I found this to be a comprehensive book with interesting and appropriate case studies and reflective questions.
Chapter 7 raised much discussion in the group of Initial Teachers and helped to share different perspectives.
The chapter entitled Creating Inclusive Classroom Environments will be of particular interest to trainee teachers and the chapter on Looking Beyond School will support students considering the importance of parent partnerships.
This is an excellent book that provides rich and useful information on inclusive pedagogies. It draws on contemporary theory and research in order to enable practitioners implement effective strategies to meet the needs of learner diversity in inclusive classrooms.
This book will provide a clear and easily accessible overview of SEN within schools. I will be recommending that all students refer to this during my lectures.
This bbok is good for students who wish to specialise in SEN. It covers recent research on SEN in the classroom and covers teaching and learning styles, another hot topic in the study of early yaers.
teaching startagies and practical and refelctive approaches help the student to progress in this field. Lots of useful information on the day to day support needed to provide an inclusive appraoch to SEN children.
