AB - Asia‐Pacific area countries need to establish special education that fits each country’s circumstances. To do so, instead of imitating and applying philosophy and knowledge of advanced foreign countries, we have to build unique inclusive education model and clear educational identity, so that we can find a way to establish special education that fits our country.
This paper deals with 6 countries, namely Australia (A), China (C), Hong Kong (H), Japan (J), Korea (K), and Taiwan (T) and is organized into 5 sections based on papers from each country. here is the list of the sections; 1) education structure in general and special education outlook of each country, 2) comparing present states of inclusive education in each country, 3) challenges and results of inclusive education in each country, 4) context and unique quality of inclusive education in each country, 5) implications and future tasks.
And next, implications for inclusive education in Korea are suggested: use of special education related terms; attitude toward students with disabilities and awareness improvement education; diagnose and assessment of students with disabilities; special classroom education placement; process of educating teachers and teacher training; role of special teacher and cooperation between teachers; operate curriculum in operation conjunction with inclusive education; and inclusive education in special school and operation direction.
