The Role of the Teacher in the Inclusive Education System
Abstract
The article is devoted to an important problem in the field of pedagogy – inclusive education. In the modern world, discussions about expanding the concept of inclusion are becoming increasingly popular. This article examines the role of the teacher in inclusive education. Education is known to be an important factor influencing social processes and serves to shape the qualities and values that define the individual. Democratic education ensures equal rights to education for all members of society, both able-bodied and disabled.
The article establishes that an inclusive educational environment is a space in which children with varying educational abilities, both those with and without disabilities, learn together. In this system, a special role is assigned to the teacher, who must be not simply a purveyor of knowledge but a sensitive, flexible, and qualified mentor capable of shaping the education and development of all students.
The key idea emphasized is that cultural-historical theory suggests that learning and personal development depend on the social environment, interaction, and collaborative activities. This is an important foundation for inclusion, as interaction, the social environment, and support play a significant role.
