Title: Pedagogical Challenges with Diversity and Special Education Referrals in Ontario Introduction 1

Profile image of Miranda Too

Related Papers

Courtney Musselman

Special Education is offered in many schools today and more and more students are being referred to this type of education. For this capstone project three local special education teachers were interviewed about the referral process and what could be done to improve it. This is an important issue because many students are slipping through the cracks when it comes to be identified and others are being overly identified. The referral process is important because it provides students with an equal opportunity for education. Findings from the interviews and information from a relevant literature review were used to develop an action to be applied before referring students to special education to ensure they are receiving a proper education.

According to regulation 298 of the Ontario Education Act (1990), a primary role of educators is to ‘effectively’ instruct the students they have been assigned. It is my understanding that ‘effective’ teaching is more than simply giving the lesson of the day that aligns with the curriculum. As a teacher, I try to support my pupils’ learning by taking into consideration the best possible way to serve their diverse abilities. Furthermore, I acknowledge that students may require personalized and tailored school supports in order to fully benefit from their educational experience. In my own practice, I have utilized special education programs and services as resources to individualize my pedagogy. That said, working in the realm of special education has its challenges. This major paper has the purpose of exploring these barriers while understanding special education as a growing tool to cater to the diversity of students in 20th century classrooms

Remedial and Special Education

This special issue of Remedial and Special Education is a collection of theoretical and empirical research addressing equity in the preparation of a diverse special education teaching force, with a focus on racial/ethnic diversity. The purpose of this special issue is to open a conversation about equity as it pertains to special education teachers, including both students’ equitable access to special education teachers who share their racial/ethnic and/or cultural background and prospective special educators’ equitable access to the profession.

Focus on Exceptional Children

Annie Bauer

The goal of the study was to identify a pedagogic signature for teachers in special needs education. According to Shulman, a pedagogic signature can create a professional identity and provide guidance. The present study used a mixed-method approach. Experts in learning disabilities and emotional/ behavioral disorders completed an instrument from the field of industrial and organizational psychology that quantified and weighted professional demands on teachers. The results were added and validated with group discussions. By combining the results with Shulman's dimensions of a pedagogic signature, it is apparent that surface structure and deep structure play a minor role in special needs teachers' perceptions. The importance of an implicit structure in terms of a particular humanistic ethos is characteristic of special needs education. The consequences for the practice of teaching will be considered in terms of current problems and questions in research and practice, and particularly regarding inclusion.
