Curriculum change occurred nowadays shows that the curriculum is prone to social changes. Although the changes remain happened, there seems no curriculum which distinguishes its use between normal students and students with special needs (either physical or mentality). In fact, the curriculum should be enjoyed not only by the normal students but also the students with special needs. Hence, they can obtain equal education system without feeling a sense of discrimination from the government. Although the curriculum is the same, teachers may apply different strategies and methods. Hence, the teachers are not only professional in teaching, but also has specific competence than those who teach normal students. What I mean competence here is not professional, pedagogy, personality, or social competences. Rather, it is a spiritual competence where teachers are teaching by heart, not by material (money).

Reinforcement is one of the widely used practices in today's educational environments. Teachers often use reinforcement as a form of discipline in the classroom, and these reinforcements allow students to learn new ideas, skills, and rules. Reinforcers can be used effectively in teaching of the social and academic skills as well as in reducing or eliminating problem behaviors. Therefore, this study aims at identifying how pre-school teachers in inclusive classes employ secondary reinforcers for the students with special needs. The study is designed as a descriptive research. The participants of the study are four pre-school teachers working in Ankara who teach students with special needs. In this study, the data were collected through the Teacher and Student Information Form and Learned Reinforcement Checklist which was developed by the author.

Being a teacher in special needs school is not an easy job. Besides having to possess knowledge about children with special needs, special needs school teachers are required to have high patience and good mentality at work. One factor that affects the teachers’ success in educating students at special needs school, is the teachers’ motivation in carrying out their obligation. This study aimed to investigate what factors affected Indonesian teachers’ motivation in shaping and developing their identities and what strategies they used in teaching students with special needs.Using a qualitative method, the researchers gained data by interviewing teachers from two special needs schools in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. After analyzing the data, the researchers found that both intrinsic factors such as the desire to assist students with special needs to be more independent, and extrinsic factors such as family, students, and colleagues influenced the teachers’ motivation to teach in special needs schools in Yogyakarta. These factors played an important role in developing and shaping the teachers’ identity. The researchers also found that audio visual materials became the most effective and helpful strategies in teaching English for special needs schools. This study offers some suggestions for future researchers and Indonesian government.Keywords: Teacher Identity, motivation, teaching strategies, audio visual materials
