Hello Listers!
I didn't read the first few E-mails under this topic so I may have missed
the reason students' homework assignments are flooding the Leeds research
listserv. Did the instructor require students to post to the list? It's a
bit disturbing, really.

Final Refection
Throughout this short, but intense 3 week class I have learned a great
deal about individuals with disabilities and their role in society over the
years. I never really knew how misunderstood the term disability was over
the years. The misunderstandings of disabilities lead to mistreatment of
individuals with disabilities by members of society, government, and doctors.
This class taught me that in thinking that society is fair to everyone I
am very wrong. I used to think that everyone is treated equally and I
learned over the past three weeks that that is not true and although the
government has made policies to try and make it equal it is still not so.
The information that I have learned over the past three weeks will help me
for the rest of my career. The rising popularity of inclusion in the
classroom will require me to work with individuals with disabilities. These
students with disabilities will need to be given accommodations that allow
them to succeed in my classroom. The treatment of the students with
disabilities may not be the same for all students, but it will be fair in that
each student will receive the accommodations and teaching style they need to
be able to succeed to the best of their educational abilities.
The teachings from this class and the readings that went along with it,
will always be in the back of my mind and will always be present in my
teachings. I will be sure that the unjust among these individuals will not
continue in my classroom.
