Learning unit contents
We start by recalling the main concepts in use in the field of disability and specific disorders in learning. Next, we present successively the ideologies that have founded segregative practices before more integrative practices and today , inclusives practices. The general framework of the Un Convention on the Rigts of Disabled Persons and its implications are presented. The concepts of reasonnable adaptations and universival design are discussed.
The legal and organisational belgian framework and its evolution are approached before presenting an ecosystem and developmental model to guide our practices.
A third part of the lecture analyzes the various integrative and inclusive practices in Belgium and other countries of pupils with learning difficulties or disability, in preschool, primary, secundary and high education.
Finally some instruments to evaluate a process of integration are presented and criteria underlying the analysis are examined.
A more practical part complete the theoretical presentations and students are invited alone or by small groups to work on various topics, by achieving observation and data collection in schools.
