Educators’ perceptions of inclusive education for learners with physical disa...AJHSSR Journal
ABSTRACT: While the practice of inclusive education has recently been widely embraced as an ideal model
for education, the acceptance of inclusive education practices has not translated into reality in most mainstream
classrooms. Even though education policies in South Africa stipulate that all learners should be provided with
the opportunities to participate as far as possible in all classroom activities, the implementation of inclusive
education is still hampered by a combination of a lack of resources and the attitudes and actions of the educators
in the classroom. The main purpose of this paper is to develop a deeper understanding of educators' personal
understanding of the barriers to learning and how their understanding relates to their consequent actions to
implement inclusive education in mainstream classrooms. A qualitative research approach was used to establish
their perspectives and to frame questions regarding their perceptions and understanding. The findings, in this
paper, indicate that the way in which educators understand the diversity of learning needs is based on the
training that they received, which focused on a deficit, individualised approach to the barriers that encounter
learning and development.

A Review of Inclusive Education Curriculum at primary level in PakistanSamia Dogar
The study was designed to review of curriculum of inclusive education at primary
level.The procedure of the study involved the selection of 100 students from the public
schools of Islamabad randomly. The data was collected through questionnaires. Analysis
and interpretation of the data was carried out by the help of the frequencies of the data.
Keeping in view the collected data it has been concluded that students learn less with the
help of verbal lecture only. Teachers did not use A/V aids for their class room teaching,
because A/V aids have not been provided to their institute. Most of the teachers were not
trained for teaching inclusive education curriculum. They should be provided training
through in-service refresher courses or workshops. It was also concluded that contents are
too lengthy and most of the students, feeling bored, start daydreaming during their classes.
The Data also shows that curriculum sometimes does not match with the mental level and
needs of special students. It is recommended that books should be colorful and Teachers
must be trained through workshops/seminar about inclusive educations.

READING PROFICIENCY OF THE JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS: TOWARDS AN INTERVENTI...MIA SHARANNAH AMOR
Keywords: READING PROFICIENCY, LEAST MASTERED READING SKILLS,
SCHOOL-BASED READING INTERVENTION PROGRAM
The study sought to determine the reading proficiency of 296 Junior High School
students of Calaitan National High School in relation to the following profiles: ethnicity,
first language spoken, exposure to print and non-print reading materials, and grade level.
The least mastered reading skills were determined through the validated Reading
Proficiency Test that includes the skills on using phonetic analysis, using contextual
clues, using idioms, getting the main idea and identifying facts and opinions, predicting
outcomes, drawing conclusions, following directions, using parts of the book, and using
dictionaries, encyclopedia and other reference materials and using the internet.
Descriptive-developmental survey method was used in the study. The instrument used in
the study has two parts: the first part determines the profile of the respondents; and the
second part was the 50-item reading test of the thirteen skills being tested. The following
statistical treatment were used in the study: (1) percentage and frequency to describe the
profile of the respondents and (2) mean and mean percentage score (MPS) to determine
the least mastered reading skills (below 60 % MPS) of the respondents. The study
revealed that out of thirteen (13) reading skills, identifying facts and opinions fall under
beginning level with a mean percentage score of 27.75% and the rest of the skills are
under developing level. Their profiles particularly exposure to print and non-print reading
materials and grade level influence their reading proficiency level. The results of the study were considered in the development of the reading intervention program and the
reading materials that will be used in the conduct of the intervention. It is recommended
that the school administrator adopt the proposed reading intervention to aid the least
mastered reading skills of the junior high school students. Researchers are encouraged to
validate the content and usability of the reading materials as well as to conduct an action
research on the proposed intervention program.

Investigating the status and barriers of science laboratory activities in Rwandan teacher training colleges towards improvisation practice By Kizito Ndihokubwayo From Graduate School for International Development and Cooperation, Hiroshima University
Abstract
This study aims at investigating the barriers encountered by science teachers in laboratory activities in Rwandan teacher training colleges (TTCs) using questionnaires and interviews. The results confirmed that teachers face barriers like time limitation, material scarcity and lack of improvising skills in their everyday science teaching life. About 95% of teachers who teach in schools with laboratories and only 5% of their peers at schools without laboratory show enough awareness on science laboratory activities. However, in terms of the importance of laboratory experiment and improvisation approach, students had the similar responses in all the investigated schools.

The Effectiveness of Thematic Teaching Approach on Developing Reading Skills ...paperpublications3
Abstract: Thematic teaching approach is a strategy which connects all subject areas using a common theme hence making learning integrated and meaningful. The purpose or this study was to investigate the effectiveness of thematic teaching approach on developing reading skills among preschoolers in Manga Sub-County, Nyamira County, Kenya. The target population for the study included 120 ECDE teachers and 800 preschoolers. The study used cluster and simple random sampling techniques in obtaining a sample size of 36 pre-unit teachers and 240 preschoolers. Data was collected by means of questionnaires and observation checklists. The findings indicated that thematic teaching approach was the common approach which was used to develop reading skill among pre-school children. The study also found that pre-schools in which their ECDE teachers always used thematic approach to develop reading skills performed relatively better than those where teachers rarely or never used the approach. However, reading skills still remained below average. Findings of this study could help Kenyan pre-school teachers to evaluate their instructional practices in the teaching of reading and also aid the Ministry of Education to carry out in-service training courses on appropriate methodology in developing reading skills in pre-school children.
How Can ESL/EFL Teacher Education Improve the Education Quality of, and Trans...Iwan Syahril
The quality of teachers cannot exceed the quality of their teacher education programs and their teacher educators! We should start from teacher education when we want to improve teacher and teaching quality. In the International Conference on Language and Language Teaching 2018, I propose the idea of interdisciplinary teacher education initiated by Second/Foreign Language Teacher Education. With its strong emphasis on English language mastery and the recent development in multiliteracies and Content and Language Integrated Learning, L2/EFL Teacher Education can be the pioneers for interdisciplinary teacher education especially in developing nations. Teachers in this program can have the qualifications to teach not only English, but also other subjects such as science, social studies, math, arts, or technology, etc. Teachers educated in an interdisciplinary way will much more likely to have the capacity to think and teach in an interdisciplinary way too. It is what we need for the 21st century society. Education and educators must rise with the occasion!

Dynamic Learning Program for Millennial Learnersijtsrd
This research determined the effectiveness of Dynamic Learning Program for the six science process skills of our Grade 9 millennial learners of Soom Integrated School, Trinidad, Bohol, Philippines. These six science process skills are observing, communicating, classifying, inferring, measuring and predicting. Fifty three students were the respondents of the study and quasi experimental method was used. To determine the significant mean difference, z test was used. The target topics of the experiment were the three modules of the third grading period Volcanoes, Climate and Constellation. Findings revealed that Dynamic Learning Program helped students obtain higher academic performance in science, thus the six science process skills were enhanced and developed. Post test data rejected the null hypothesis there was a significant difference between the pre test and post test scores of the student. An enriched Dynamic Learning Program was designed to address the issue on low performance in science subject. Jenny P.

The Role and Strategy to Stimulate Language Development in Early Childhood Du...EvaniaYafie
The development of aspects of language in human life is very important. A
language is a tool of education and interaction between individuals. Language development
problems in early childhood that often arise are late language emergence (LLE). From some
previous studies, stimulation and education factors become guidelines for teachers and
parents in providing appropriate stimulation through the principle of play while learning and
adapted to the development and age of the child. The purpose of this study is to describe the
role and strategy of stimulating children's language development during the COVID
pandemic. The design of this study uses the method of literature study or literature review.
The results and discussion of strategies for developing children's language for 1-2 years old
can be done by 1) Mothering, 2) Recasting, 3) Echoing 4) Expanding 5) Labeling. While
strategies for developing children's language for ages 3-6 years 1) Increasing Interaction and
Communication with Children 2) Reading aloud, 3) Involving Children in Storytelling, 4)
Providing literacy activities.

The Role and Strategy to Stimulate Language Development in Early Childhood Du...EvaniaYafie
The development of aspects of language in human life is very important. A
language is a tool of education and interaction between individuals. Language development
problems in early childhood that often arise are late language emergence (LLE). From some
previous studies, stimulation and education factors become guidelines for teachers and
parents in providing appropriate stimulation through the principle of play while learning and
adapted to the development and age of the child. The purpose of this study is to describe the
role and strategy of stimulating children's language development during the COVID
pandemic. The design of this study uses the method of literature study or literature review.
The results and discussion of strategies for developing children's language for 1-2 years old
can be done by 1) Mothering, 2) Recasting, 3) Echoing 4) Expanding 5) Labeling. While
strategies for developing children's language for ages 3-6 years 1) Increasing Interaction and
Communication with Children 2) Reading aloud, 3) Involving Children in Storytelling, 4)
Providing literacy activities.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
