The use of TLMs in Secondary School Inclusive Education

Author : Wesonga Justus Nyongesa

Abstract :

The artefacts, lesson plan, activities, teaching strategies, and results discussed in this paper are based on my observations and experiences while co-teaching at The Gateway School of Mumbai during my internship, where I was supervised by Ms. Anusha Ramanathan and mentored by Ms. Indrani Chatterjee. The participant students are enrolled in NIOS Grade 12 and experience some learning difficulties due to conditions like autism, dyslexia, dyscalculia, ADHD, specific reading comprehension deficit, etc. The Universal Design of Learning and each student's unique challenges in understanding or responding to a subject are taken into consideration when teaching the students. Since the classes are delivered online using Zoom, technology is used to enhance the instruction.
