Education Issues Series an NEA Affiliate Special Education Inclusion Educators' Bulletin Board Resource pages on educational issues Professional support OnWEAC book store ... ONLINE SERVICES This article was updated November 5, 2001 Inclusion remains a controversial concept in education because it relates to educational and social values, as well as to our sense of individual worth. Any discussion about inclusion should address several important questions: Do we value all children equally? Is anyone more or less valuable? What do we mean by "inclusion?" Are there some children for whom "inclusion" is inappropriate? There are advocates on both sides of the issue. James Kauffman of the University of Virginia views inclusion as a policy driven by an unrealistic expectation that money will be saved. Furthermore, he argues that trying to force all students into the inclusion mold is just as coercive and discriminatory as trying to force all students into the mold of a special education class or residential institution. At the other end of the spectrum are those who believe that all students belong in the regular education classroom, and that "good" teachers are those who can meet the needs of all the students, regardless of what those needs may be.

Counselor Resources Collegiate Choice Walking Tours For students interested in colleges that are at a considerable distance.  We are not endorsing the website and students shouldn't replace the actual visits but as an alternative for teens and parents to "take a look " at a school that a student is seriously considering when distance makes an actual visit out of the question.  The person behind the camera acts like a parent asking the tour guide questions about campus safety, dorm-room assignments and class sizes. The tapes cost $15 each plus shipping and run at least an hour. Here is a excerpt from their homepage as well as the internet address: "Collegiate Choice Walking Tours are simple, non-promotional videos of the student guided campus tour offered at over 350 colleges and universities across the United States, Canada, England, Ireland and Scotland.  These videos are not professionally produced.   Guidance counselors, not commercial film makers, are doing the recordings."
