Beyond Formal Assessment in Inclusive Classrooms: The Complex Relationship between Teacher Beliefs and Teaching
Woolfson, Lisa
Psychology of Education Review, v42 n2 p28-32 Aut 2018
For inclusive educational policies to be successful teachers need to support their implementation in the classroom, in terms of their beliefs and instructional practices. But what do teachers believe about teaching and learning in children with special needs and disabilities in inclusive classrooms? This position paper considers this question. Possible ways forward will be suggested to encourage teacher beliefs that better support effective inclusive instructional practices.
