Question

Outline and analyse the limitations of the traditional medical approach to. inclusive education.

Answer 1

The limitations of the traditional medical approach to inclusive education include:

• It does not incorporate diverse learning styles; the traditional approach fits a common pedagogical style despite differences in students' background and abilities.
• It is not multicultural; the traditional medical system of instruction does not make effort to foster cultural pluralism despite glaring differences between races and culture in the classroom. There is also a lack of content integration in the classroom when illustrating generalizations within subject areas.
• It lacks equity pedagogy to some extent; with little modification to teaching practice to more cooperative teaching strategies that can help pursue the common goal.
