Teachers´ perspectives and beliefs about inclusive education in elementary schools in Mexico
(Benemérita Universidad Autónoma de Puebla, 2023-10) Amaro Herrera, Maricruz
“The research project explores teachers’ perspectives, feelings, and thoughts about inclusive education in elementary and public schools in Mexico. The system of education in Mexico incorporates an inclusive education program at all academic levels. It means that everyone has the right to attend school no matter their physical conditions, age, sex, religion, economic status, race, etc. The Secretary of Public Education (SEP)assumed that teachers, infrastructure, materials, personalized staff, and academic programs are ready to give quality education. However, it is not known if the inclusive program works or not. The investigation is based on a questionnaire of 13 questions made on google forms because it was socialized via the internet. The questionnaire reached 116 participants who work as teachers. After that, the data was read, then analyzed, and organized into different categories. Finally, the information was deposited in bar and pie chart graphs to represent better the information based on numbers. In other words, the investigation follows a mixed method. The research could find that the educational system is not well prepared to give an inclusive education. However, teachers are willing to teach all kinds of students even if they do not have enough training and material”.
