教城專家團隊解答特殊教育疑難
提升教學效能 走向學習共融

在共融教育的大趨勢下,除特殊學校外,主流學校的教育同工亦擔任著照顧、教育和輔導有特殊教育需要學童的角色。教師既要兼顧日常教學,也需要處理不同能力、情緒、學習障礙的學生問題,例如如何改善學習差異、處理個別學生在課堂上情緒失控問題、提升家校溝通等,對於教師來說,這個過程每每充滿困難和疑問。

為令教師及學校同工可以在便利的途徑下,得到專業人士因應個別教師和學童個案提供針對性的建議和支援,香港教育城(教城)的融合教育資源平台「共融資料館」與數家專業輔導機構和多位專家合作,在「融合教育討論區」提供網上諮詢服務,當中包括精神科醫生、特殊學校校長、香港教育學院特殊學習需要與融合教育中心、香港傷健協會傷健學院等,希望透過他們的專業知識和經驗,指導各教學同工如何照顧特殊教育需要學童,為他們提供更妥善的教育和照顧。以下是部分機構及專家的簡介:

Dear principals and teachers,

HKEdCity Joins Hands with SEN Specialists for Inclusive Education

In view of today’s inclusive education policy, it is likely that you need to take care of at least some students with special educational needs (SEN), whether you are in a mainstream school or a special school. Apart from the routine teaching work, you are apt to face students with different abilities, emotions and learning difficulties, and other problems. These include tackling learning diversity, handling students with emotional problems in class and facilitating parent-school communication, which can all be challenging and confusing if you are to face them alone.

Therefore, to let you get access easily to professional advice and support based on your individual student cases, Hong Kong Education City (HKEdCity) now joins hands with various professional bodies and specialists to provide online counseling services on ‘Inclusive Education Forum’ of ‘Inclusion Pavilion’, HKEdCity’s online resources platform for Inclusive Education.
