inclusion in schools

The Big Picture: What They Say
OVERVIEW OF THE ISSUE IMAGE OR GRAPHIC

● Inaccessibility and exclusion

● In higher education
● Something called the “Hechinger Report” found that
only “one-third of college students with disabilities
graduate from four-year institutions within eight years
of enrollment, and 41 percent graduate from two-year
institutions within the same time frame”.
● According to “National Center for Education Statistics
”, students with [challenges]
● make up roughly 11 percent of our country's
undergraduate population — that's more than 2.5
million students. But federal data shows that only 41
percent of these students graduate from two-year
colleges within eight years; that rate drops to roughly
one-third for those attending four-year schools.
A: Group Violated: Demographic & Region
DESCRIPTION: IMAGE/GRAPHIC

GROUP: People with physical and neurodiverse

challenges

GEOGRAPHICAL REGION: United States

B. Human Rights Violated/Limited
1. First Right IMAGE/GRAPHIC/DATA
a. UDHR Article:26. Everyone has the right to education
and to free primary education.
i. If People with physical challenges do not have
ways to get education because they can not leave
their house then then right #26 is violated. if there
is no way to empower people with physical
challenge then they are breaking their rights.
FACTS/FIGURES

2. Second Right
● Every country must do its best to ensure that everyone
has enough to live a life of dignity.
■ This means that everyone especially
those with physical and
Neurodiverse challenges should not
have barriers to getting education
C. Causes
List out the numerous causes or groups Images
responsible.

• Students with a physical challenge get

setbacks is no ones fault,

• Although schools does have

responsibility to provide support to
empower the students to be able to
succeed like everyone else

• generally do not apply to schools that are

religiously affiliated. In addition, many high
school programs for students with
disabilities do not stress certain "soft
skills," such as studying and time
management, that they need to succeed
D1. Existing Proposals
What is already being suggested? Images

Who is suggesting it?

● While many colleges have part-time programs,

online courses or blended learning options, my
liberal arts campus was not one of them. In 2012,
89 percent of public institutions offered online
courses, compared to just 60 percent of private (

)
● Of course:
● The Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act
● Americans with Disabilities Act
● Various services
D2. Barriers to Change/Opposing Views
What might prevent these changes from taking Image
place?

For one, federal safeguards like the ADA and

Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act are limited in
that they cover only certain institutions — e.g., those
that receive federal aid — and generally do not
apply to schools that are religiously affiliated. In
addition,

I think schools are responsible to do whatever it

takes to help all students,

though companies or administration are at fault

more since teachers and counter might be low on
funds to get what they need
E. Proposals/Solutions
Steps in your proposal? Images

Which of the current solutions or proposals,

might we use?

Places can educate on inclusion so people

learn not to exclude others.

I think we see someone's need and do

whatever it takes to accommodate

Whatever the costs

Enforce schools, companies to provide help and

reasonable do anything they need to succeed.

Whatever means necessary as long as it is fair

Conclusion
Thanks

Let's do what we can to help everyone!!!
