RJA #8a: Quotation, Paraphrase, and Summary
http://www.seformmatrix.com/raven/raven8.htm
People who support mainstreaming argue that removing disabled students from the regular classroom stigmatizes them and often fails to improve their academic performance. By placing these students in regular classrooms, they will have a better learning environment, be better accepted by their non-disabled peers, and become as independent as possible. Mainstreaming also provides a service delivery system that is more adaptable to individual children.
Write a paragraph incorporating a short quotation from the passage. Modify the quotation using an ellipsis and brackets.
In this paragraph, they talk about how people who support mainstreaming do not agree with removing disabled students from regular classrooms because it "...stigmatizes them..." which in turn does more harm to the child, than it would for them to be in a regular classroom. A very important reason why children with disabilities should not be singled out in their own classrooms is that normal children will learn to discriminate against the other kid's disabilities from a very young age, which will turn into a problem as adults. By mixing all students in one classroom, the disabled children will "...be better accepted by their non-disabled peers..." which will benefit, both normal and disable children in the long run.
Paraphrase the passage. Check your paraphrase carefully to make sure that it is accurate and appropriate.
It is argued, that putting disabled kids in their own classrooms does not have a good outcome in the end. The reason for this is that if you isolate disabled kids in their own classrooms, they do not have the advantage of having a good learning environment such as in a regular classroom.
Summarize the passage. Check your summary carefully to make sure that it is accurate and appropriate.
Students who are mainstream have advantages that others do not.

RJA #6c: Field Research Options
- I'm looking into doing an interview, I want to talk to a teacher that is in the field of special education. To see what there perspective is on mainstream education
- On the other side I would also like to talk to a teacher that is not in special education and see what here side is on the matter of mainstreaming.
- I also would like to conduct a quick survey of what people think of mainstreaming education. Maybe go around campus asking students of there ideas or handing out a survey to some people around me.
