Topic: Inclusive education

Q20

While teaching in inclusive setups, it is important that teachers—

  1. (1) see diversity as an obstacle to effective teaching.
  2. (2) continuously examine their own implicit and preconceived bias.Correct answer
  3. (3) understand special children as needy and dependent on others.
  4. (4) follow same curriculum and uniform pedagogy of all learners.

Solution.

CBSE answer: (2)

Answer: (2) continuously examine their own implicit and preconceived bias

  1. Inclusion begins with the teacher's attitude.
  2. Hidden beliefs about caste, gender, disability, language or poverty can quietly lower expectations of some children.
  3. By reflecting on such biases, the teacher can treat every child fairly and respond to their needs.
  4. Diversity is a resource, not an obstacle; children with disabilities are capable learners; and one uniform pedagogy does not suit all.

Trap: (4) sounds fair but ignores differences.
