Education Issues Series Special Education Inclusion Educators' Bulletin Board IDEAS Resource pages on educational issues Professional support ... ONLINE SERVICES This article was updated November 5, 2001 Inclusion remains a controversial concept in education because it relates to educational and social values, as well as to our sense of individual worth. Any discussion about inclusion should address several important questions: Do we value all children equally? Is anyone more or less valuable? What do we mean by "inclusion?" Are there some children for whom "inclusion" is inappropriate? There are advocates on both sides of the issue. James Kauffman of the University of Virginia views inclusion as a policy driven by an unrealistic expectation that money will be saved. Furthermore, he argues that trying to force all students into the inclusion mold is just as coercive and discriminatory as trying to force all students into the mold of a special education class or residential institution. At the other end of the spectrum are those who believe that all students belong in the regular education classroom, and that "good" teachers are those who can meet the needs of all the students, regardless of what those needs may be.

Public Education: Views of a Concerned Parent Table of Contents "Earth Day Every Day" proclaims the official sign for Merrill Middle School in Oshkosh, Wisconsin, just south of my town, Appleton. That's me behind the sign, feeling rather uninspired by the school's apparent emphasis on environmental activism instead of academics. Imagine what our kids could do and learn if every day was math day, history day, science day, and reading and writing day? It almost staggers the imagination, but maybe they would graduate with actual competence in math, history, science, and English. Introduction: my views The benefits of Direct Instruction The problem with block scheduling (a separate page) The evidence speaks: Competition is good for education (a separate page in my " Snippets " area) Public education versus home schooling Striving for mediocrity: The war against excellence Suggestions to improve public schools The disappointment of middle schools ... Links related to education Introduction In many elementary and secondary schools, education seems more focused on fostering attitudes ("affective education") than on teaching. Self-esteem is sometimes treated as the ultimate goal, while many parents are clamoring for a return to academics. With 4 children attending public schools, I want real education to occur. Sadly, many schools focus on popular "reforms" and new programs that detract from academics. Goals 2000, workforce education
