The long-held global agenda for inclusive education often ignored indigenous knowledge, local assets, and cultural-historical context. As a result, those top-down policies become either fruitless or oppressive. They are not sustained and may result in unintended or negative outcomes. In Brazil, student profile at the specialized schools designed…

Michael Tuttle; Erik W. Carter – Journal of Special Education, 2022
Computer-assisted instruction (CAI) is a critical tool for accessing information and instruction among students with visual impairment (VI). This systematic review examined eight CAI intervention studies implemented with 92 U.S. school-age children with VI. The interventions were implemented with a diverse group of students across a variety of…

Miles, Rhea G.; Zambone, Alana; Manda, Alex – Journal of Science Education for Students with Disabilities, 2022
Students with blindness or visual impairments (BVI) need to participate in scientific laboratory experiences at the K12 level to be successful in college-level science courses. These K12 level students need instruction to actively conduct science experiments and not only allow sighted students to conduct them. While it may be a challenge, with…
