Abstract:

<p> The passage of The No Child Left Behind (NCLB) Act (2002), formerly known as the Elementary and Secondary Education Act, sparked a significant rise in the number of students with disabilities receiving their instruction in the inclusive setting. While previous legislation mandated that students with disabilities be included in standardized testing, NCLB called for closing the achievement gap between students with disabilities and their nondisabled peers. Research indicated the success of students with disabilities in the general educational setting was influenced by teacher attitude. This

Abstract:

This study explores the role and meaning of general education in Chinese higher education in the face of ongoing social changes in China, using Fudan University (FU) as a case study. General education has been heatedly discussed and greatly promoted in Chinese higher education since the last decade of the 20th century. Since existing theories and conceptions of general education mainly focus on Western, especially American, higher education, there has been little exploration of the meaning and role of general education in China, which has very different sociopolitical and cultural traditions

Abstract:

From the establishment of Harvard in 1636, to the establishment of the first public Junior College in 1901, to the curricular reforms of the 1960's and 1970's, the purpose of higher education and the role of general education have been the subjects for many lively debates. The national debate on issues relating to general education has intensified within the last decade, and community colleges continue to be active participants in these debates. The purpose of this study was to describe the course contents and classroom environments of selected community college general education general biol

Abstract:

GNVQs epitomise one strand of contemporary philosophy of education. However, a question that arises is whether GNVQs, having built on the ethos of NVQs, abandon all earlier educational philosophies in favour of the competence movement endorsed in the USA. A question central to this study revolves around whether earlier, alternative philosophies of education also have something of value to offer. To answer this, traditional approaches to educational provision are identified and explored in terms of their possible 'ideal types'; these ideal types being seen to be represented by liberal, general

Abstract:

<p> The rate of the inclusion of students with high-incidence disabilities in general education classrooms are increasing across the nation.

More specifically, the perceptions of urban elementary general education teachers on the inclusion of students with high- incidence disabilities is limited.

Abstract:

<p> It is well-documented in the literature that female superintendents are underrepresented in the field of public school leadership (Derrington & Sherratt, 2008; Hoff & Mitchell, 2008; Mountford & Brunner, 2010). Even as more women have assumed the leadership position of superintendent, they may be viewed as atypical leaders (Coleman, 2003). The leadership styles of females differ from those exhibited by their male counterparts and their work is impacted by sex-role stereotyping and gender bias (Grogan & Shakeshaft, 2011; Harris, 2007; Hoff & Mitchell, 2008; Kowalski &a

In Grades 3 to 5 at a suburban southeastern elementary school, the percentage of students with disabilities (SWDs) who do not meet state standards in science and social studies is greater than that of their nondisabled peers.

Abstract:

Although trans* students often face greater levels of discrimination, harassment, and hostility on college campuses than their cisgender peers, research indicated that they can succeed by developing and honing survival strategies, such as resilience and being part of a trans* kinship network that resists trans* oppression.

The term trans* is used in this study as an inclusionary term for transgender persons and other gender nonbinary iden
