Remote learning became the temporary model of education for students. The intention of this study was to investigate teacher perceptions and experiences of remote learning, in order to understand its impact on students with exceptionalities and their social and emotional learning (SEL). The research design for this qualitative study encompassed multiple cases that included teacher interviews with a semi-structured interview protocol. The sample for this study consisted of 16 educators: eight elementary mainstream education teachers, three elementary special education teachers and five related service providers. Interviews were transcribed and coded using grounded theory. There were three themes that emerged from this research, however, in this article the author focuses on the most prevalent theme: <i>students' SEL deficits and exceptions</i>. SEL deficits include emotional regulation, lack of engagement and perseverance. Exceptions found include advocating for oneself and being tech savvy. The data strongly suggest the need for change. The findings of this study may help support the reimagining of special education, teacher practices, and how to integrate SEL into the curriculum throughout the day.</p>","PeriodicalId":46054,"journal":{"name":"British Journal of Special Education","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2023-11-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138516720","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We applied a mixed-methods design to identify potent features of inclusion, and developed an index that measured the extent to which inclusive practices were considered in schools. The index was administered in 168 schools and to 498 teachers. Using exploratory factor analysis, psychometric properties and potency of factors were determined. Our results revealed a two-factor solution cumulatively accounting for 72% of variation. Based on our findings, we highlight the need for schools to be deliberate in processes that enhance application of inclusive practices.

To bridge this gap, this study explored special education teachers' perceptions regarding the effectiveness of AT in supporting the learning and mobility of students with VI in schools. A total of 228 special education teachers from three regions in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi, UAE, participated in the study. The participants completed an assistive technology for VI scale, and the data were subjected to mean score computation, multivariate analyses of variance and correlation and hierarchical multiple regression. Participants rated the impact of AT highly with regard to the reading, writing and orientation and mobility skills of students with VI.

Abuse, bullying and other forms of mistreatment have a permanent impact on their sense of self-worth, generating negative emotions and self-protective behaviour in order to shield themselves from further harm. As a result, these young people may struggle to maintain their self-esteem in the context of the challenges they face. This article aims to explore how training can be used to combat this issue to build self-esteem among vulnerable young people, through a case study of a training entrepreneurship programme for vulnerable Thai young people residing in a home for girls. Through conducting a 16-week training programme and follow-up interviews, the study finds that entrepreneurship training has a positive effect on building self-esteem. Findings indicate that the young women who participated reported feeling more confident, with better self-reliance, and more capable of pursuing future endeavours, especially since the training enhances their understanding of long-term effects and outcomes, including employment and the impact of job creation and sustainable development. Ultimately, the study underlines the importance of entrepreneurship training to build self-esteem and confidence in young people who are vulnerable and in need of such an opportunity.</p>","PeriodicalId":46054,"journal":{"name":"British Journal of Special Education","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2023-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136069084","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The survey investigated the individual's perception of their own role, and the interactions within the team. The survey collected some quantitative data, such as age and length of time in role, to explore correlations, but it also asked open-ended questions, providing a wealth of qualitative data. While we have focused on relationship dynamics between professionals in previous work, in this article we revisit the data with a specific focus on the positionality and voice of the child and their parents within multi-professional teams. In doing so we find that professionals frequently forget that the child themselves is entitled to a say in the decisions made about them and that the concept of the parent as an expert on their own child is rarely recognised in practice. There is also evidence that the challenging emotions that many parents struggle with during multi-professional working can easily be misread as reluctance or disinterest.
