6. Special Education Inclusion Are teacher unions hurting American education? A report by the Institute for wisconsin's Future text of the statute or the implementing regulations. Instead, the law requires that http://www.weac.org/resource/june96/speced.htm

Education Issues Series an NEA Affiliate Special Education Inclusion Educators' Bulletin Board Resource pages on educational issues Professional support OnWEAC book store ... ONLINE SERVICES This article was updated November 5, 2001 Inclusion remains a controversial concept in education because it relates to educational and social values, as well as to our sense of individual worth. Any discussion about inclusion should address several important questions: Do we value all children equally? Is anyone more or less valuable? What do we mean by "inclusion?" Are there some children for whom "inclusion" is inappropriate? There are advocates on both sides of the issue. James Kauffman of the University of Virginia views inclusion as a policy driven by an unrealistic expectation that money will be saved. Furthermore, he argues that trying to force all students into the inclusion mold is just as coercive and discriminatory as trying to force all students into the mold of a special education class or residential institution. At the other end of the spectrum are those who believe that all students belong in the regular education classroom, and that "good" teachers are those who can meet the needs of all the students, regardless of what those needs may be.
