Nauczyciel wobec trudności związanych z edukacją uczniów z zaburzeniami ze spektrum autyzmu w warunkach szkoły integracyjnej i ogólnodostępnej. Analiza obszarów problemowych

Abstract

Inclusive education is currently the main direction of educational transformation in Poland. A growing presence of students with different kinds of disabilities in mainstream classes represents a new challenge for teachers, who do not have specific qualifications in the field of special education. The purpose of this article is to analyze the situation of those teachers facing various difficult situations occurring in the education of students with autism spectrum disorders. The analysis covers four areas whose characteristics can become a potential source of difficulties: student characteristics related to autistic disorders, characteristics of the school environment, competence and professional preparation of teachers, and cooperation with parents and professionals working with the child.
