Research Abstract |
(1)A Comparison of Early Intervention and Transition System in Japan and the USA-Recommendation by Director Sharon Wenz(UTM) include : (a)Building on the existing Public Health System to establish a National Early Intervention Program. (b)Establish a system to assess all newborn children for eligibility using a universally recognized screening tool for developmental delay. (c)Support a comprehensive, country wide, public awareness campaign. Dr.Barbara Gregory commented on Program Access for College Enhancement(P.A.C.E), which has developed at The University of Tennessee at Martin. Students, parents, secondary personnel, and postsecondary personnel work collaboratively in transitional planning. With the proper support system, they too shall succeed in the postsecondary setting. (2)Assessment Questions Results by Dr.Kendall & DeMoulin-115 teachers-school administrators with the Hirosaki University community were surveyed regarding students with mild disabilities into their regular education programs and their regular education programs and their knowledge and skills in instructing students with disabilities in 1995. In comparison to the data in 1993-1994 of American teachers were : (a)more in favor for mainstreaming students with disabilities, (b)more in agreement that mainstreaming would assist students with disabilities to function in society and promote social interactions with normal students, (c)more in agreement that public schools should provide special education services for students with disabilities in the regular education classrooms, Efficacy Observation Results-100 educators from Japan and America were administered the efficacy observation. Results of this study indicated that self-efficacy levels among Japanese educators were sighificantly higher than their American counterparts. Analysis also indicated that self-efficacy was not a significant factor in determining acceptance of children with disabilities in the regular classroom.
