Abstract

In lieu of an abstract, below is the essay's first paragraph.

One of the newest and most controversial terms in education today is "inclusion." Simply defined, it means including disabled students with non-disabled students in every aspect of education, from the same classrooms to the same social activities and support groups. It is a practice that has its own jargon, instructional practices and legal requirements. Disabilities, a phenomenon that encompasses stereotypes, myths, negative attitudes, and inappropriate behaviors, are a major barrier to the successful education and integration of children.
