Trimm-AlcarezSchool of Education, Liberty [email protected] today’s classrooms, placement setting appropriate for students with disabilities has continued to be the center of controversy with administrators, teachers and school leaders. There has been an ample amount of research in inclusion versus pull-out program, teacher’s perception in inclusion of students with disabilities in the general education classrooms, and the support and accommodation they will receive to succeed academically. The “one-size-fits-all” concept is still the norm when it comes to learning.
