Special Educational Needs

An inclusive educational environment in Ukraine’s education system is a key factor influencing its intensive reform, enabling access to quality education for persons with special educational needs. The purpose of the academic paper is to develop a scientific approach to the formation of an inclusive educational environment of Ukraine’s educational institutions, taking into account the experience of its creation in European countries. Research methods: comparison, system-structural research, statistical-analytical, tabular, graphic, analytical modeling, as well as methods of abstraction, analysis and generalization. The most effective model for creating inclusion in European countries is the use of a comprehensive (variable) approach, that is, a combination of different forms of involving children in the educational process. Achieving success in the course of the formation of an inclusive environment is possible provided that the management actions of the subjects of the educational process are combined. These should include not only teachers, social workers and students, but also psychologists, methodologists, parents of children with special needs and representatives of state and local bodies, who are delegated the powers and authority to organize the learning environment. Inclusion in education is achieved through the rational distribution of powers between teachers, parents of children with special needs and the authorities. The model of an inclusive environment should be based on the principle of variability and differentiation. In the process of creating a comfortable learning environment for children with mental and physical disabilities, it is important to keep in mind the rights, responsibilities and interests of teachers, as well as children with normal development. A special role in the education of children with personal needs is played by their parents. In the process of forming an inclusive educational environment, insufficient attention is paid to the functions of local authorities. Further scientific investigation requires improving the methodological approaches of inclusive education for applicants of higher education with special educational needs, which optimizes the processes of their social adaptation, resocialization and integration in the social environment.

The article defines the components of the formation of social competence in children with special educational needs by means of ICT and the peculiarities of the use of information and computer technologies in the education and education of children with special needs from the point of view of compensation of physical disabilities with the help of modern technical means. The legal framework for inclusive education of children with special needs analyzed and the existing technical developments of media applications for the development of children with different nosology's are examined. The current stage of development of special pedagogy and psychology is determined by the search for new ways of social adaptation of children with special educational needs with ICT. Significant progress in the socialization of a child with special educational needs can only achieved with the active involvement of the family, namely parents. The introduction of inclusive education in modern educational institutions, which involves the involvement of parents as active participants in the educational process in the adaptation of children to the requirements of modern society, there is a need for active study of a family raising a child with special needs. Parents' psychological maturity, family ideals, social communication experiences are often crucial in the development of a child with a specific nosology, and ICT tools only facilitate and assist in this variety of technical developments. Formation and development of children with special educational needs of social, information, digital competence by means of ICT is an important component of socialization of the individual. The process of developing social competence in children with special needs with modern ICT tools should include the development of technical programs aimed at ensuring the full development and socialization of the individual, ready for productive interaction with the environment in public life.

The article addresses the issue of the effectiveness of intervention strategies to prepare children with special educational needs for inclusive learning. It was determined that the occupational therapy approach takes into account a system of factors that can fundamentally improve the methodological foundations and practical guidelines for the activities of specialists in an inclusive environment. This system of factors covers interconnected components: 1) patterns of stages of sequential development of the child and creating a step-by-step intervention program; 2) modification of the child’s living environment so that it becomes stimulating and developing; 3) partnership of the occupational therapist with other IEP team members of, which provides for a joint determination of his needs, the formulation of SMART goals, its coordinated achievement, peer monitoring and appropriate adjustment of goals. We present in the article a comparative analysis of areas of responsibility and features of the occupational therapist and sensory therapist as a specialist, which partially duplicates the functions of an occupational therapist. The importance of distinguishing between them helps to determine the responsible position of the practices from the irresponsible one and to formulate guidelines for successful support of children with special needs. We have developed a model for creating the prerequisites for inclusive education for children with special needs, relying on the following criteria for an occupational therapy approach, such as systematic, resourceful, collegial, technological and evidence-based effectiveness. The scientific evidence of an occupational therapy approach is disclosed, as well as the technological aspect of the presented model of intervention in the direction of preparing a child with special educational needs for the educational process.

The ideas of the article are based on the high social significance of discussing the practices of inclusive interaction in various spheres of life and ensuring the variability of approaches to the integration of children with special educational needs into the general education system. On the basis of the environmental approach in education, presented in the works of domestic and foreign authors, the basic principles are outlined and the general difficulties of the functioning of inclusive practice at the present stage are identified. The strategy of applying the vector approach to the examination and modeling of the environment of inclusive interaction and designing ways to improve it for the organization of psychological and pedagogical support of the educational process in school is justified. On the basis of the generalized results of the survey of teachers who organize the education of children with disabilities in non-specialized classes, the features and the type of relations that are currently developing in the joint education of schoolchildren with different educational needs during their integration into a single educational space are characterized. Using the methodology of psychological and pedagogical expertise of the school environment, the typification of the most characteristic influences exerted at modern schools on a child with a developmental disorder is carried out. The emerging dominant modality of the educational environment, its orientation to the development of relationships between teachers and peers, based on the priority of stimulating the activity of the individual with different degrees of manifestation of its freedom or dependence, is revealed. The article describes potential capabilities of each of the diagnosed types of environment in terms of its resources for ensuring freedom of choice of activities, stimulating activity, developing students' independence, and forming their personal characteristics. The diagnosed priority of creative and career-oriented orientation allowed us to draw conclusions about the currently established approaches to the inclusion of children with deviant development in the environment of normotypic peers.

The article describes the prerequisites for the creation and implementation of an inclusive educational environment in higher education settings in Ukraine. Contradictions have been identified between the legal framework governing higher education for students with special educational needs and the lack of appropriate physical and psychological conditions for the realization of the right to education, and the contradiction between the existence of a tendency to integrate the educational process and the need to individualize the educational process. It is determined that the state of development of inclusive education in Ukraine is characterized by insufficient development of both social and acmeological mechanisms of interaction of key figures of the educational process. The types of inclusive education implemented by higher education institutions are described. The experience of implementation of inclusive educational policy at Lviv Polytechnic National University and the University "Ukraine" is considered. The author's development of the model of acmeological interaction of participants of the inclusive process in the inclusive educational environment is presented, and the criteria and indicators of evaluation of the interaction of the participants of the inclusive process in the inclusive educational environment are explained. It was found that a serious obstacle to the introduction of inclusive higher education in Ukraine is the lack of financial capacity of universities: there is no equipped environment, there are no special programs aimed at such education. Conclusions are made regarding the importance of acmeological interaction of participants in the inclusive process in an inclusive educational environment, which is not only to improve the situation of students with special educational needs but also to create positive aspects of social development in general.

Education is a fundamental right of all children, including those with special educational needs. Efforts to achieve education for all has resulted in the focused attention of governments around the world, thereby improving the quality of education in schools and leading to dignified social status for students previously marginalized and/or denied admission to schools. This worldwide movement following various international conventions and mandates has resulted in local efforts to reach rural remote areas, with education provided by the government in most countries. Though there has been significant progress in reaching children, it has not been uniform. There are still many barriers for children in rural and tribal areas or in remote parts of the country that prevent them from receiving equitable education. The essence of inclusive education is to build the capacity to reach out to all children, thereby promoting equity. In the 1990s, special needs education was a focus, and integrating it into the overall educational system led to reforms in mainstream schools which resulted in inclusive education that addressed the diverse learning needs of children. How successful have we been in these efforts particularly in the remote and rural areas? There are various models and practices for special and inclusive education in rural and remote areas, but reaching children with special educational needs in such areas is still a challenge. Though there are schools in these areas, not all are sufficiently equipped to address the education of children with special needs. Furthermore, teachers working in rural areas in many countries are not adequately trained to teach those with special needs, nor are there the technological support systems that we find available in urban areas. Yet, interestingly, in some rural/tribal communities, the teachers are naturally at ease with children with diverse needs. The schools in such areas tend to have heterogeneous classes with one teacher providing instruction to combined groups at different grade levels. Evidence shows that rural teachers are less resistant to including children with special needs compared to urban teachers. Because of their homogeneous lifestyle, community supports in rural areas offer another supportive factor toward smooth inclusion. Though primary education is ensured in most rural and remote areas, children have to travel long distances to semi-urban/urban areas for secondary and higher education; such travel is further complicated when the child has a disability. In many rural areas, children with special needs tend to learn the traditional job skills naturally associated with that area, though such skills are not always blended into the school curriculum. Preparing teachers to provide education in rural areas with the latest technological developments and a focus on vocation is bound to make that education more meaningful and naturally inclusive.

There is currently a trend towards an increase in the number of children with special educational needs enrolled in inclusive schools. Thus, the number of children with special educational needs enrolled in inclusive schools is growing. This is caused both by significant changes in the legal regulatory framework, including the 2012 Federal Law on Education, the adoption of the Federal State Educational Standard of Primary General Education for Children with Special Needs, etc. and by the fact that in some regions the number of specialized schools is decreasing, inclusive education becomes a more affordable option for children with special education needs. School specialists, parents, and the public engage in an active dialogue about choosing the most efficient path for an educational route for special needs children, comparing the advantages and disadvantages of inclusive and special education. The design and implementation of an individual educational route, an individual curriculum is essential for children with special needs in terms of improving the quality of education and efficiently entering social life. The relevance of the study is determined by identifying the components that facilitate and complicate, hinder the development and implementation of an individual educational route for these children in an educational organization; the determination of the content of an individual educational route based on the current situation in a practical institution considering the requirements of inclusive education. The purpose of the study is to explore the problems of developing and implementing individual educational routes for children with special needs in the context of inclusion and to determine ways to solve these problems. The key methods of the study are a questionnaire and a structured interview. The empirical data confirms the assumption that the development and implementation of an individual educational route for children with special needs in an educational organization are problematic and inefficient for several reasons. The data obtained is new since similar research results have not been found in the open sources over the past five years.

Введение. Проблема повышения качества образования актуализирует вопросы оценки и развития образовательных условий в образовательных организациях в целях обеспечения равных образовательных возможностей для всех обучающихся. Материал и методы. Исследование образовательной среды московских школ осуществлено с применением международной шкалы SACERS на рандомной выборке из 58 структурных подразделений образовательных комплексов, расположенных в восьми административных округах города Москвы. Результаты и обсуждение. Данные, полученные в ходе исследования образовательной среды, свидетельствуют о достаточном потенциале московских школ в плане взаимодействия между субъектами образовательного процесса, положительных тенденциях в обеспечении вариативности программ дополнительного образования и внеурочной деятельности, благоприятных условиях, созданных в системе московского образования в плане профессионального развития педагогов. При этом в московских образовательных учреждениях имеются ограничения в плане обеспечения необходимыми условиями обучения и развития обучающихся с особыми образовательными потребностями. Установлено, что школы разных районов Москвы и даже корпусов одного образовательного комплекса различаются в плане обеспечения равными образовательными условиями. Наибольшие различия выявлены в таких компонентах образовательной среды, как организация внеурочной деятельности, дополнительного образования и предметной среды для различных видов деятельности, создание условий для обучения и развития обучающихся с особыми образовательными потребностями. В школах с более высоким индексом качества образовательной среды имеются достаточно однородные образовательные условия, которые обеспечивают относительно равный доступ к качественному образованию в сравнении с группой структурных подразделений с менее высоким индексом качества образовательной среды. Заключение. Качество образовательной среды московских школ обеспечивается содержательными компонентами, связанными со взаимодействием участников образовательного процесса, организацией учебного процесса и созданием условий для профессионального развития педагогов. Различия в сравниваемых образовательных организациях, определяющие неоднородность образовательных условий, связаны с такими характеристиками, как вариативность или единообразие в использовании ресурсов, наличие ресурса или его активное использование, систематичность работы или фрагментарность, ориентация на нормы контроля.Introduction. The problem of improving the quality of education actualizes the issues of assessment and development of the educational conditions in educational organizations in order to ensure the equal educational opportunities for all students. Material and methods. We used the SACERS international scales for studying the educational environment in Moscow schools. Located in eight areas of Moscow 58 structural units of educational complexes (sample) took part in the survey. Results and discussion. Such items as interaction between the parents, the teachers and the administration of the school, the variability of the education programs and extracurricular activities, good conditions for the professional teachers’ development showed the great result. At the same time, there are some confines in providing the necessary conditions for training and development for the students with special educational needs. It was established that schools differ in providing equal educational conditions. The greatest differences are in such components of the educational environment as the organization of extracurricular activities, additional education and the subject environment for various types of activities, the creation of conditions for training and development of the students with special educational needs. Schools with a higher quality index of the educational environment have homogeneous educational conditions that provide relatively equal access to the quality education in comparison with the group of schools with a lower quality index of the educational environment. Conclusion. The quality of the educational environment in Moscow schools achieved in the participants’ interaction in the educational process, the organization of the educational process and the creation of the conditions for the professional development for teachers.
