Inclusion : Issues
• Number of people with disabilities- growing
• The number of people with disabilities in India is
substantial and likely to grow - disability does not “go
away” as countries get richer
• People with disabilities in India are subject to deprivation
in many dimensions of their lives.
• Social attitudes and stigma play an important role in
limiting the opportunities of disabled people for full
participation in social and economic life, often even
within their own families.
• India has one of the more progressive disability policy
frameworks in the developing world. However, there
remain huge challenges in operationalizing the policy
framework
Inclusion : Issues
• Increasing the status and social and economic participation of
people with disabilities would have positive effects on everyone, not
just disabled people.
• India has a vibrant and growing disability rights movement and
NGO/DPO and civil society involvement in service delivery for
people with disabilities.
• While there is a long way to go, focusing on “getting the basics
right” on disability policy would allow for significant progress in the
foreseeable future.

Losing an edge, Japanese envy
Indian Schools
• JAPAN – Growing Craze for Indian
Education
– think of India as world’s ascendant
education superpower
• Bookstores are filled with titles like
“Extreme Indian Arithmetic Drills” and
“The Unknown Secrets of the Indians.”
Newspapers carry reports of Indian
children memorizing multiplication tables
far beyond nine times nine, the standard
for young elementary students in Japan.
The New York Times….
• Japanese praise Indian Education.
Envy Indian Learners:
– learning more at an earlier age.
– an emphasis on memorization.
– focus on the basics, particularly in math
and science.
How ?

How?
Task-Oriented
Academic
The tasks faculty set
for students define
the essence of the
learning environment.
If appropriate, tasks
should be authentic
rather than academic.
Authentic
How?
Collaborative
Unsupported
Web-based tools for group work and
collaboration can prepare students
for team work in

with digital versions of their works
and performances for critique by
international experts.

How?
Conversational
One-way

must
have
ample time and secure
spaces
for
in-depth

knowledge
and
insight
are
being
constructed
in
conversation
spaces
such as GDs and
e-
learning forums.
Multi-faceted
How?
Reflective
Shallow
Both faculty and learners must
engage in deep reflection and
metacognition. These are not
instinctive activities, but they can
be learned.
Teacher preparation : Teachers
are keeping electronic journals to
reflect upon the children they
teach, and their roles as
advocates for children.
