Including the excluded - Educating the vulnerable in the 21st century (Electronic book text)

With more than half of South Africa’s school population falling into the category of ‘vulnerable’, those who teach or intend to teach are likely to encounter vulnerable learners. Questions teachers and student teachers could ask themselves are: What implications are there for teachers attempting to give all learners in their classes a meaningful education? How do teachers manage with learners of very different abilities in the same class? How do non-specialist teachers teach learners with mental and physical challenges? This textbook will be an invaluable resource for the experienced and prospective teachers alike. It offers a range of tried and tested methods and tips by experts. Additionally, the information in the book is supported by modern theory that invites new insights and perception. This book includes case studies, extensive teacher tips, as well as audio summaries directly from the authors.
