基本説明
Authors suggest that much of the 'knowledge' of special education is misconceived, and they proceed to advance a powerful rationale to inclusion out of ideas about stakeholding, social justice and human rights.
Full Description
""Deconstructing Special Education and Constructing Inclusion" is a sophisticated, multidisciplinary critique of special education that leaves virtually no intellectual stone unturned. It is a must read for anyone interested in the role and significance of inclusive pedagogy in the new struggle for an inclusive society" - Professor Tom Skrtic, University of Kansas. In this book the authors look behind special education to its supposed intellectual foundations. They find a knowledge jumble constructed of bits and pieces from Piagetian, psychoanalytic, psychometric and behavioural theoretical models. They examine the consequences of these models' influence for professional and popular thinking about learning difficulty.
