Synopsis
This volume draws together research and practice from the fields of literacy education and inclusion. As such it provides an insight into current theory, research and issues associated with teaching literacy to all students in inclusive classrooms. Literacy remains a critical success factor for students, as the basis for concurrent and future learning throughout the curriculum. As such, we take a broadened view of inclusive education and include not only students with disabilities and learning difficulties, but also those whose linguistic, cultural or social backgrounds act to marginalise or inhibit their learning. Numerous books publish research on inclusive education but this volume is dedicated to the critical aspect of literacy and inclusive practices in a range of countries. The changes to literacy in today's technological world are considered along with the impact on teaching and learning. Examples of good practice are provided, as are models of effective inclusion and differentiation in literacy teaching at different year levels, for different groups of students and the application in important subjects such as mathematics and science. Chapter authors have expertise in the fields of pre-school and early literacy, mathematical, technology and science literacy, English as an additional language, literacy difficulties in primary and secondary schools, inclusion and special education. They provide highly relevant research and useful information for researchers, teacher educators and those engaged at all levels of the implementation of inclusive literacy education in schools.

Newspapers & Magazines
Within the theme of literacy for all in regular classes, education researchers and practitioners examine theories and key principles of literacy education, and policies and practices in several countries where mainstream teachers provide inclusive literacy education. They cover literacy inclusion and access to the curriculum: international insights, and improving student literacy with vulnerable cohorts. Among their topics are examining the literacy within numeracy to provide access to the curriculum for all, leadership approaches to inclusive education: learning from an Irish longitudinal study, developing inclusive literacy practices in South African schools, encouraging literacy through inclusive science investigations: how a sense of wonder can cater for diversity, and inclusive literacy for students from other language backgrounds. -- Annotation (c)2017 * (protoview.com) *
