The Knowledge of Inclusive Education (eBook, PDF)

An Ecological Approach

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

The Knowledge of Inclusive Education is a paradigm-shifting exploration of inclusive education as a dynamic knowledge practice. The knowledge that underpins the practice is understood through the metaphor of an ecology, with valuable contributions from educators, researchers, parents, students, policymakers, and international organisations.

By examining the knowledge of policy, research, teacher education, and activism, Elizabeth Walton constructs a future for inclusive education that affirms different material-discursive places, inquiry, and possibility and replaces traditional research hierarchies with a life-affirming ecology. Readers will gain a novel perspective on the knowledge/s of inclusive education across multiple interacting domains.

With theoretical resources ranging from the work of Lorraine Code and Basil Bernstein to concepts from Legitimation Code Theory, Decolonial theory, and Posthumanism, this book offers a unique and innovative approach to the multiple perspectives and knowledges that inform inclusive education policy and practice. Its conceptual and empirical research draws from several international contexts, ensuring that The Knowledge of Inclusive Education will be of interest to educators, scholars, and advocates of inclusive education worldwide and valued by those willing to embrace collaborative new directions in inclusive teaching, learning, and research.
