Inclusion of students with disabilities in the socio-educational environment of FAREM-Estelí in the second semester of 2019

Abstract

In this recent study, the different factors that influence the inclusion process from the socio-educational system are described for people with disabilities in the individual, group and institutional environments within the FAREM-Estelí University campus; In this sense, the challenges that teachers are facing to meet the objective of their subjects, facing the special educational needs of students with disabilities are raised. The University Campus has determined different measures, policies and actions in order to  promote the restitution of rights, promotion and development of the capacities of students with disabilities from different areas. As of 2009, the Faculty made changes such as infrastructural changes with the aim of improving access to students with motor disabilities, hiring speech therapists to serve students with hearing disabilities, sign language courses, among other actions. The study focuses on the inclusion and integration of students with disabilities and the implementation of strategies and actions that teachers, administrative staff and authorities are implementing to address the needs presented. Even with the changes and strategies implemented, there are large gaps regarding the issue of awareness and awareness of the university community, which implies defining strategies to work on the subject. The faculty must work on the inclusion and integration of students with disabilities at all educational levels and with the entire educational community. Work in the search for new alternatives for continuous improvement in the face of disability.
