Irish Mathematics Teachers' Attitudes towards Inclusion
Whitty, Elaine; Clarke, Marie
European Journal of Special Needs Education, v27 n2 p237-256 2012
This paper through the theoretical framework of constructive attitude theory explores mathematics teachers' attitudes and pedagogical strategies with reference to inclusive practice. The authors argue that though teachers may have formed positive inclusive attitudes, the translation of these into practice does not always occur and poses significant challenges. (Contains 4 tables.)
