Why Do Teachers Need to Know About Diverse Learning Needs? Summary

Why Do Teachers Need to Know About Diverse Learning Needs?: Strengthening Professional Identity and Well-Being by Dr Sue Soan (Canterbury Christ Church University, UK)

As a teacher, what are a teacher's personal, social and emotional responsibilities in supporting pupils with diverse learning needs? There is no longer a place for a teacher who denies their role in the education of pupils with diverse needs. But understanding how to meet these challenges, particularly in amongst the other challenges of teaching and the classroom, can seem daunting. Drawing on examples from early years to college, this book looks at what inclusion and inclusive practice means in practice and how it relates to different aspects of teaching. Covering issues related to teacher well-being, resilience and other professional skills this book offers the reader the opportunity to use case studies and research to reflect on their own professional practice. Expertly crafted by Sue Soan, drawing on the expertise of a team of practitioners and academics, this book brings together the latest research and current practice. International case studies showcase examples of practice and reflexive questions encourage the reader to explore their experiences, knowledge and expectations to help them to develop as a practitioner.

Why Do Teachers Need to Know About Diverse Learning Needs? Reviews

This book is a welcome addition to the growing literature on establishing inclusive learning environments. Teachers, at all stages of their career, will find their understanding of diversity and inclusion enhanced. This book is structured to bridge the theory-practice divide through the collaboration between classroom practitioners and education academics supported by insightful case studies and an invitation for teachers to reflect on their practice and develop their confidence in responding to the challenge of diversity and inclusion in their classrooms. * Michael Shevlin, Professor in Inclusive Education, Trinity College, Dublin, Ireland *
Thought-provoking, challenging, informative and accessible - This excellent book is about how to teach and prepare pupils with diverse learning needs to be resilient, skilled and independent in our ever-changing and unpredictable world. I highly recommend it as an essential text for Initial Teacher Training programmes and CPD for teachers. * Geraldine O'Grady, SEND Consultant and formerly Director of the Teaching School, Whitefield Academy, London, UK *
This book provides a range of perspectives on pupil diversity guiding the reader through core concepts of special education and with cases, reflective and reflexive questions, and windows on research. Furthermore, the book can greatly benefit the professional development of new as well as experienced teachers. * Anne Lindblom, Associate Professor in Special Education, Norway Inland University of Applied Science, Norway *
