STRATEGIES AND CONDITIONS FOR THE INCLUSIONS INTELLECTUALLY DISABLED PEOPLE IN EDUCATION

Abstract

A key feature of people with intellectual disabilities is the wider developmental delay, which includes a variety of areas of cognitive and motor development of an individual, such as difficulty speaking or inability to develop social behavior. The educational process should therefore focus on specific areas of skills enhancement, such as the field of communication, self-care, etc. More specifically, the educational process of children with intellectual disabilities should have a specific plan and design adapted to the capabilities of children, to maintain the smooth transition from one activity to the next, to emphasize the strengths of each student and finally to the personal rhythm of each student is utilized separately. All these educational strategies in combination with the implementation of inclusive education in the school environment are the best possible combination for students with intellectual disabilities and not. Through inclusion, students with intellectual disabilities are socialized through interaction with their classmates, but on the other hand, their classmates also learn to accept diversity, thus creating a friendly environment between them. But inclusion has some preconditions for success, such as the recognition of the universal right to attend all children in general school, the acceptance of the atmosphere of multiculturalism that prevails in the school reality and finally the school infrastructure that a school unit has, as well as the scientifically trained staff.
