Brief Overview into Inclusive Settings in Higher Education in Turkey
Öz
Problems that individuals with disabilities meet can
be listed as social exclusion, inequality in access to health services,
education and personal development, and inhibition of their access to
fundamental rights and freedoms such as participation in professional life.
Among possible preventions against these problems, the significance of
inclusive education arises. Inclusive education provides the individual with
special needs with the opportunity of being educated with his peers and
obtaining ideal educational facilities for his requirements. Statistical data
related to the rates of individuals with disabilities benefiting from
educational services in Turkey is considerably worrisome. In addition,
attending primary and secondary education is viewed as satisfactory for people
with disabilities. Therefore, current conditions are not able to meet the needs
of university students with disabilities in Turkey. For making higher education
system in accordance with inclusive education in Turkey, a framework which will
be used for developing programs including phases and adaptation of these
programs may be created. This framework may be a useful guideline for
adaptation of any program to inclusive education. The phases in this framework
may be structured as pre-system arrangement, recognition of inputs,
participation to process and transformation to dynamics, evaluation, and
monitoring life span development.
