EXPERIMENTS ON INCLUSIVE EDUCATION

Summary/Abstract: Inclusion as a relatively new concept and a way of consideration in the organization of a modern teaching system and school arose out of a necessity to eliminate every type of segregation among students. According to some leading theoreticians of this field, inclusive education is the way to enable students with special needs to incorporate into regular classes and heterogeneous classes together with other age-mates. To turn this idea into reality it is necessary to do a series of complex actions, not only in school but also on a broader social scene including changes in attitudes and convictions of the people directly involved into the process of implementation of inclusion. Although the idea of inclusive education is mostly understood as a concept which aims to incorporate children with special needs (in terms of different psycho - physical deficits) into regular classes, available theoretical considerations and practice often attribute to inclusive education an ambition of observing every child as a child with “special needs”. That would mean that in the process of inclusion we should care for talented children the same way we care for all other chategories of children who are stigmatized or marginalized. However, in this paper, inclusive education is analyzed mainly in the context of a new attitude towards children with certain difficulties with learning and behaving.
