Journal of Special Education Apprenticeship, v9 n1 Jan 2020
Opportunities for inclusive postsecondary education for students with intellectual and developmental disabilities are becoming increasingly common at institutions of higher education in the United States. Although inclusive postsecondary opportunities benefit the entire campus, this may be especially true for students enrolled in teacher education programs. This research used qualitative methods to better understand how participation in an inclusive postsecondary course impacts pre-service teachers. Four primary themes emerged from the data, including (a) "Self-Efficacy in Teaching," (b) "Comfort with People with Disabilities," (c) "Inclusion," and (d) "Acceptance." Implications for practice and research are discussed.
