How To Disabilitie Children With Disabilities

When students meet the eligibility for special education services they are labeled as having a disability. Some labels that are used are intellectual disability, physical handicap, behavior disorder, etc. (Colarusso et al., 2013). Many people, young and old, look down on labels that are associated with special education. Colarusso et al., (2013) explained that after a label is placed on a child, others perceive the child as the disability and not a person anymore. Students are not made by their disabilities and that is a major concern for controversy. As educators, we should be aware of labeling and understand the consequence it could have on a child but that is not always the case. I have seen parents refuse services for their child because

Discrimination affects the intellectual health of an individual by causing a loss of interest, loss of motivation, restricted opportunities, poor job prospect, poor life achievement; an individual that is finding it hard to cope in college because of his disabilities is more likely to drop off because he is not provided with sufficient support. We can say that not providing the necessary support is restricting his access to education which is contrary to the education Act 1996 which sets out the schools responsibilities towards children with special educational needs. The Act also requires that school provide additional equipment and resources and/or support to meet their needs. Such individual will suffer from stress, will be unable to cope

Today’s society is different in its thinking when dealing with people with disabilities. There had to be many changes made in its labeling, and approach when dealing with people who may have physical/mental differences. The ostracize behavior that people were known to disturb in society has changed a great deal, due to the many federal laws that have been put in place to insure the well-being of people that have disabilities. In 1972, one very well-known case is Mill vs Board of Education of the District of Columbia this case address how the constituted rights of students were not being meet by not providing them with a public education.” Many disabled children had been excluded from public education prior to 1975,24 Congress, through the Act, sought initially to set up a process by which states would find children in need of educational services and bring them into the system”(Kotler, p.491,2014).

Children with a learning or physical disability may be subjected to prejudice or discrimination at school because they could be treated differently

Ill-treatment of children with disabilities is a disturbing problem that needs to be addressed more deeply, as it is a major issue of concern. The current incidence of maltreatment in this population is underreported,

I have been working with students with exceptionalities in many different complicates over the past 6 years. My first job working with students with disabilities was aa a camp consoler at Aaron's Acers,a summer camp that helps students with disabilities work on their social, motor and communication skills. My main responsibilities in this position was working with one child and helping them improve the desired skills decided on by their parents and teachers during the school year. I was also responsible for helping the other staff members plan activities and events for each of the camp sessions. I worked with this amazing organization for 5 consecutive summers between 2013- 2017.

All across the globe, people with disabilities are shut out from the rest of society, kept back by a wall called “stigma”. They are well hidden from the rest of the world, institutionally separated from the moment that they begin school. Children with disabilities grow up almost exclusively around other children “like them”, usually under the pretense that it allows them to feel more “normal”. As they grow

Children with special disabilities have the right to study and to be treated with equality as they deserve the knowledge every child receives. On modern times schools all around the world have the idea that if they have autism and AD/HD children in their schools people are operating to get their special sons into their schools and they account this as publicity for them. Few children act in to have the rights as a normal student since they suffer bullying from their classmates. Different people favor they down to have the right to study, say that this special infants can not revenue the privilege of receiving a normal learning process just as a result of them having a disability. Some other

The concept of integrating people with abnormalities into a “regular” atmosphere has been a topic of controversy amongst society for centuries. However, the issue still persists to this day and students are being segregated for having special needs from their “normal peers”. Students with special needs were frowned upon in society due to their abnormalities and because of this, they were also often feared because of the assumption that their condition was contagious. The effect that this had on them was that they in turn had little to no social skills, no friends, and were not educated on the same level unlike their ‘ normal’ peers their age. On the other hand, one can argue that students with special needs should be kept segregated from the other students because of their need to develop as human beings. However, this argument, while valid, is not exactly true because while it is said that they should be separated, they need

Schools accommodate an excellent number of children with disabilities and development difficulties. This poses challenges for teachers, educators, and students. The support given by stakeholders and workers play an important

Children with disabilities have the same rights as children without a disability to a proper education. Knowing that the human brain develops rapidly in the first years, early interventions are crucial to help children develop and learn abilities that will help them all throughout their lives. As Early Childhood educators we should understand how these two important laws work, in order for us to have a good communication with our families to better help each one of our students develop all their abilities in a nourishing and respectful

This essay will examine the Medical and Social model and the factors that relate both models to equality and diversity. Furthermore, the essay will provide evidence on how these models could have an impact on a professional role. A model is a way of representing an idea which can be shown through types of expression. These being graphically, verbally and symbolically. The two main models associated with disability is the Medical and Social models. The authors Johnston & Nahmad-Williams describe the models of disability as “The way we view the issues of including individuals with special needs or disabilities in schools and in society is underpinned by two main models, the ‘medical model’ and the ‘social model’, and their associated discourses.” Johnston,J, & Nahmad-Williams, L. ( 2014).

Learning disabilities are true. They affect regions in the brain that become dysfunctional, resulting in difficulties in communicating, storing, and processing information. It is a common situation that affects 1-2.5% of the overall population in the Western world (Gillberg & Soderstrom, 2003). Children with learning disabilities are not different than others. However, their intelligence in average and they have difficulties acquiring new skills for a better performance within the society. Moreover, these are lifelong situations. Therefore, the sooner they are recognized, the better assisted and analyzed. These children like others have the right to be treated and educated fairly. Their situation doesn’t make them inferior. Medical, social, and technological services are now available to support them. Are children with learning disabilities treated humanely in Western societies?

Children who live with physical, sensory, intellectual, mental and multiple disabilities are amongst the most stigmatized and all too often marginalized within the family, school and wider community. The resulting poor education outcomes affect their opportunities and increase their vulnerability to violence, abuse and exploitation. People with disabilities in Saudi Arabia did not receive any type of special education services prior to 1958. The parents of students with disabilities were responsible for providing any assistance to their children (Al-Ajmi, 2006). Therefore,

It was stated that not everyone including teachers and students are excited about disabled students being in the mainstream classroom. The government accounting office (GAO) released a report to the congressional committee on labor and education about the treatment of special needs in the public schools. As we know special needs children are those diagnosed with a variety of disabilities and are placed in classes designed to improve their opportunities for learning. Some of these disabilities can cause the child to be very hyperactive which causes them to move around a lot and find it difficult to focus their attention on tasks. As a result teachers find these kids to be very disruptive whether they are in a mainstream class or special education class. Consequently, disabled children are not getting appropriate, specialized attention and care, and the “regular students” education is being disrupted constantly. Which brings me to my research question; “Should children with disabilities mental or physical disability be allowed to attend public schools?” Education is one of the most effective ways to break the cycle of
