Abstract | Jordan's 2017 Public Law No. 20, Rights of Persons with Disabilities Act has given rise to a renewed focus on inclusive education. Using a qualitative comparative case study design, the purpose of this study was to examine factors impacting how schools in Jordan are defining, interpreting and enacting inclusion. Four shadow teachers working in schools to promote inclusive education participated in interviews and weekly journaling prompts. Data were analyzed using cultural-historical activity theory (CHAT) and sensemaking. Results showed support for inclusion by the community when there are adequate resources and supportive administration. Additionally, the shadow teachers have taken on a progressive role as coaches to general education teachers, while promoting social inclusion. This study establishes the utility of CHAT and sensemaking in global research on inclusive practices. The results provide areas of strength in Jordanian schools that should be built on to increase inclusion of students with disabilities. (As Provided). |
