The Relationship Between Teacher Effectiveness and Teacher Attitudes Toward Issues Related to Inclusion

The inclusion of students with special needs in regular education classrooms has become a major focus of current educational reform, and regular education teacher's acceptance is a critical component in how this type of service delivery will play out. The author of this study reexamined the results of a study which indicated that more effective teachers were less willing to include students with special needs in their classrooms. Using a different method for identifying effective teachers (n=149), the present study found results that were in direct contrast to earlier results.
