Teachers, can you help me? Do you believe inclusion benefits the child? ?
I am a college student and I am doing a paper on inclusion. I need to ask a teacher a few questions about inclusion. If you could, please help me. You can email me @ rhiltonld@yahoo.com.

It really depends on the child and the way in which it's implemented, as well as the subject matter. The bottom line, imo, is that the inclusion situation doesn't stress the child out, the child is actually included, and the class is not disrupted by unacceptable behaviors on the part of the child w/disab.

This is a tough question. And it really depends on the child and the team doing the inclusion. Forcing a child into an inclusion classroom when they aren't ready is not a good idea.
Also, it is important to make sure that the child is provided with the _least_ amount of help necessary to make them succeed in the classroom. A student walking around with an aide connected to them just makes them look weird and and more different. It's a fine line, but if done correctly the benefits can be great.
