{"product_id":"diversity-inclusion-and-engagement","title":"Diversity, Inclusion and Engagement","description":"\u003cp\u003eEmbed the principles and practices of inclusion into your students’ learning experiences. Diversity, Inclusion and Engagement presents a clear, socially oriented approach to understanding and developing inclusive education. It prepares pre-service teachers for diverse classrooms and helps them develop strategies to engage students with varying backgrounds, needs and abilities. This new edition has been updated to reflect changes in legislation, policy, regulation, curriculum, research and practice. It takes a fresh look at what inclusion means and explores the disadvantages or limitations that prevent children fully participating in education. Retaining a strong focus on student engagement, it addresses areas that are proving challenging for teachers in engaging all students in inclusive learning environments: a greater number of children from immigrant families, the increasing impact of poverty in Australia, and the influence of technology on education. With extensive learning features that blend theoretical issues and context with practical skills, this book provides pre-service teachers and others with the knowledge and understanding to manage classroom challenges and develop inclusive learning environments. Features Includes school and classroom factors that can influence the inclusion, learning, and development of school students Provides detailed guidance on forms of pedagogy that are specific to different groups of students Offers guidelines for teaching that can meet the learning orientations of First Australians, immigrants and refugees, students with disabilities, gender identity and expression, second language learners, and students with behaviour and mental health challenges Encourages a strength-based approach rather than a deficit-based approach Written by highly experienced specialists in their fields A chapter on the future of inclusive education is provided to provoke discussion and forward planning New to this Edition Updated research to align with legislation, policy and curriculum changes since the last edition.
