- Abstract
The importance of inclusion is still a contentious topic in the domains of education and psychology. Despite the controversy presented, according to the U.S. Department of Education, over the last two decades, the number of students with learning disabilities educated in general classrooms has increased substantially. Because of the huge expansion in inclusive programs, some have concluded that “full inclusion with co-teaching” is currently the preferred model of service delivery for kids with learning disabilities in most parts of the United States. For educators, it seems to be a positive term that embodies special needs students in regular classrooms, but it might quite difficult to provide an inclusive atmosphere for students with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Since there are many commonly held concerns about this action, this paper will examine several effective methods and accommodations to help perform a successful inclusion in educational settings. Throughout this paper, the focus will be placed on some general characteristics of ASD students, a comparison between different classroom environments, as well as teaching styles and implementations. This review demonstrates that, when done correctly, purposeful inclusion can help students with ASDs and other disabilities achieve academic and social success.
