FOUNDATION OF SPECIAL AND INCLUSIVE EDUCATION

MODULE II

FOUNDATIONS OF SPECIAL EDUCATION

NAME: JAYCEELINE B. PADILLA

COURSE, YEAR & SECTION: BSED 3-A

ACTIVITY I
ESSAY: (5 POINTS EACH)

1. Why do we need to recognize “Special Education”? Explain your answer in 5-7


sentences.

 We need to recognize “Special Education in order to understand the learning needs and
procedure and to play an important role in the expansion and advancement of learning needs of
special children. Recognizing special education, we will become responsible enough so that the
students could be able to achieve excellence irrespective of their disabilities. Having the
knowledge about special education, provides a special platform to the children having special
needs along with the driving of their learning issues which can make their life success. The
special education aims at providing training without leaving any gap in between. Recognizing
special education also helps in making training before considering the importance of job
responsibilities. A person or a student with any kind of disability can easily conquer the world by
their hard-work and skills. For this, they should be given special opportunities without any terms
and conditions.

2. Why do we need to set objectives in Special Education? Why is it important?

 We need to set objectives in Special Education in order to help the exceptional children to learn
and acquire necessary skills for their self-help, independent living and leading future life as
properly as possible. To help them to acquire necessary social skills, emotional literacy to live and
participate in school, home and community life as properly as possible. Special education is
instruction that is specially designed to meet the unique needs of a child with a disability. This
means education that is developed to address that child’s specific needs in order to achieve his or
her highest learning potential. Since each child is unique, it is difficult to give a sweeping
example of special education. It is individualized for each child. we need to set objectives in
Special Education to provide the child an opportunity to learn in the least restrictive environment
so they can ultimately thrive to the best of their ability when transitioned into adulthood.

3. How can we help other people with special needs? Do you have an idea how to help
them? Share your ideas.

 We help other people with special needs when we realize people with disabilities should be
treated the same as everyone else. The most important part of interacting with someone who
has a disability is seeing that person for whom he or she is, and not what disability that person
has. Common ground is the base of all human connections once we’ve found something in
common, then we can deal with the differences. For example, a person in a wheelchair may use
a wheelchair lift and hand controls to transport into a car and drive. Instead of thinking about
how you and this person drive differently, focus on the commonality, which is both of you drive.
In this instance, the difference doesn’t matter. For me, it can be a big help treating someone
with a disability or special needs just how we would want to be treated. Everyone appreciates
respect and etiquette, not just people with special needs.

4. Explain the following rights of children with disabilities in 1-2 sentences only. Explain
it based on your own understanding.
 Should have the rights as normal person do

 A person with disabilities should have full enjoyment of all human rights and fundamental
freedoms on an equal basis with other people like having the right to free and appropriate
education and to be treated fairly and given access to all of the services and supports to which a
person is entitled.

 Must NOT be isolated nor be looked down

 A person with disabilities must have an environment that is free from discrimination. Many people
with disabilities are capable of caring for themselves without any assistance, they understand
what they’re capable of and what their limitations are.

 Must be treated as persons of dignity

 A person with disabilities must be treated with dignity and respect. We should not consider them
useless and objects of pity with no chance for a life of dignity. We should see life from their eyes,
realize their potential, and provide them with opportunities.

 Needs should be provided

 Every person has strengths so as people with disabilities, it’s more important for us to focus on
what a person can do, their abilities, rather than their disability and use these abilities to assist
the areas that they have the most challenges with and provide them what they need. We must
ensure that the necessary resources are allocated to and for the people with disabilities. They
should be provided with appropriate individual support, respect, understanding and love.
