On a recent sunny Southern California morning, school site and district administrators as well as educators and school district coaches gathered for a full-day interactive workshop on differentiation of instruction in inclusive classrooms. The workshop was hosted by the Attallah College of Educational Studies\u2019 <\/span>Thompson Policy Institute<\/span><\/a> in collaboration with the Orange County Department of Education (OCDE). The workshop participants compared and contrasted traditional, retrofit, and universal design for learning (UDL) approaches to differentiation; explored design points in developing differentiated lessons; practiced retrofit approaches to differentiation; and examined frameworks to facilitate UDL. <\/span><\/p>\n

\"FullThe event was funded by the Inclusion Technical Assistance Collaborative (I-TAC), a grant-funded initiative that strives to enhance research and technical assistance surrounding the development and implementation of inclusive education in the United States and Orange County. <\/span><\/p>\n

With I-TAC grant funds, TPI is able to support local school districts in their inclusion efforts by offering professional development such as this OCDE workshop. According to TPI\u2019s Associate Director Audri Gomez, Ph.D., TPI will eventually also provide technical assistance to schools and be implementing new extended education courses through Chapman\u2019s <\/span>Attallah College of Educational Studies<\/span><\/a> on inclusive education. <\/span><\/p>\n

Pressing Need for Inclusive Education<\/b><\/p>\n

The <\/span>research findings<\/span><\/a> reported at TPI\u2019s 2018 DisAbility Summit showed that, of the 241 district-level administrators across California, 23% had never been certified in special education. Additionally, two-thirds of survey participants said that their district\u2019s mission statement does not specifically address inclusion. <\/span><\/p>\n

Researchers also concluded that California and Orange County are far behind the national average in the progression of inclusive education, such that the percentage of students with autism placed in general education classrooms in Orange County is notably lower than the national average of 55%. According to the Thompson Policy Institute, California places only 32% of its students with autism in general education classrooms. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIn a segregated classroom, students don\u2019t have the same educational access and opportunities as their peers without disabilities,\u201d Dr. Gomez said. \u201cDecades of research has shown that students with disabilities do better academically, socially, and behaviorally when they\u2019re included in an environment with their peers without disabilities.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Esteemed Keynote Speakers <\/b><\/p>\n

The recent OCDE workshop featured two keynote speakers: President of Bayridge Consortium, Inc. Richard A. Villa, Ed.D., and Jacqueline Thousand, Ph.D., Professor Emerita and developer of the special education teacher graduate programs in the College of Education, Health and Human Services at California State University, San Marcos. Drs. Villa and Thousand have written numerous books and publications and presented across the United States and internationally on the topic of support for individuals with disabilities. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThese speakers are well known in our field, so it\u2019s great to have them guiding our workshop participants in professional learning,\u201d Dr. Gomez said. \u201cThis is an opportunity for teachers, educational coaches, and district personnel to learn how they can best support students with disabilities in an inclusive environment.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Practical Strategies and Takeaways<\/strong><\/p>\n

At the end of the day, many of the workshop participants said they particularly appreciated how the speakers were able to bridge theory and practice.<\/p>\n

Marnie Dean, an OCDE special education TOSA (teacher on special assignment), who has taught special education for many years, said the workshop has helped her view her students\u2019 strengths and limitations differently.<\/p>\n

\u201cI like that Dr. Villa said to look at the whole child and not the disability. I got a lot out of the workshop, but that really was eye-opening to me,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Dean and other participants said they were able to take away a lot of practical strategies, as the presenters’ real-life examples helped demonstrate how to implement the concepts and make them work in the classroom with real students.<\/p>\n

Matt Riggle, a seventh\u00a0grade teacher at Vista Heritage Global Academy in Santa Ana, said the workshop also opened his eyes to importance of inclusive instructional practices.<\/p>\n

\u201cI learned that implementing UDL is going to be really important to be able to hit all my learners in the class so that no one is left out,\u201d he said. \u201cAt my school we have a large population of middle school special ed students, and I want to make sure that I\u2019m giving them the access that everyone else getting.\u201d<\/p>\n

Future Collaboration <\/b><\/p>\n

TPI and OCDE expect to hold more, higher-capacity workshops on related topics at larger venues. OCDE expressed interest in having a series of workshops in the future that will last three to four days, and it plans to continue working with Chapman in an effort to increase inclusive education.<\/span><\/p>\n

Pamela Tupy, Ed.M., OCDE\u2019s coordinator of educational services, says OCDE is excited to partner with to partner with Chapman\u2019s Thompson Policy Institute: \u201cAs we move forward in our work with supporting districts in their implementation of a multi-tiered system of support (MTSS), we believe that inclusive practices in academics, behavior, and social-emotional learning enable all students to participate meaningfully in the community, including students with disabilities.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

Dr. Richard Villa will be back at Chapman later this spring to speak on advocating for inclusive education at TPI\u2019s <\/span>Annual DisAbility Summit<\/span><\/a> on Friday, April 19, 2019 at the Marybelle and Sebastian P. Musco Center for the Arts. The event is free and open to the public.<\/span><\/p>\n
