Methodological Approaches to the Inclusion of Students with Disabilities
Keywords:
creativity, disability, inclusion, university teaching, positive climateAbstract
Through the prism of educational rights for everybody and the inclusion of all participants in the teaching process, creative university teaching is considered to be the dominant field. Insufficient participation of students with disabilities in the university context also testifies to the still insufficiently recognized social aspect of inclusion. The benefits of creative teaching point to specific elements of inclusion that can be applied in university teaching through the use of creative techniques. This study provides an example of university teaching that would lead to the achievement of preconditions for full inclusion through the humanistic approach, creative teaching methods, different types of media, mutual communication, and a positive and democratic climate. The results reveal the perspective of university professors, experts from seven scientific fields, and students of the Teacher Education study program on the possibilities of full inclusion of students with disabilities in university teaching. In doing so, a particular emphasis is placed on the possible limitations and incentives that can make it (im)possible to create the additional preconditions important for the successful inclusion of students with disabilities.
