Abstract
Okullarda kaynaştırma eğitimi, özel gereksinimi olan öğrencilere yönelik eğitim imkanlarını artırmak ve geliştirmek amacıyla ortaya çıkarılmış ve sürekli olarak geliştirilen bir eğitim planıdır. İnsanlar gerek doğuştan gerekse sonradan fiziksel, zihinsel ya da her ikisi açısından engelli birer birey olmaya adaydır. Eğitimde fırsat ve imkân eşitliliği ilkesi doğrultusunda bu bireylerin topluma uyum sağlaması, davranışlarının en iyi şekilde geliştirilebilmesi için okullarda erken yaşta kaynaştırma yoluyla eğitim ve öğretime katılması en temel gerekliliktir.
Okullarda kaynaştırma yoluyla eğitim alan öğrencilerin öz yeterliliklerini geliştirmek, akranlarıyla uyum sağlayabilmesi ve toplumda birer sosyal birey olarak yetişmesi esastır. Akranlarıyla eğitim alan özel öğrencilerin bu sayede geri kalmış olan sosyallik yanlarını diğer öğrencilerle paylaşma, sorumluluk alma, ekip olarak hareket etme, ortak düşüncelere sahip olma gibi durumlarla geliştirmek esastır.
Bu araştırmanın amacı, ilkokullarda kaynaştırma eğitimi uygulayan ilkokul öğretmenlerinin, kaynaştırma eğitimi alan öğrencilerle yaşadığı zorlukları belirlemek, uygulamalar sırasında ortaya çıkaran yetersizlikleri tespit etmek ve bu yetersizliklerin, zorlukların mümkün olduğu kadar aza indirilmesi ve daha faydalı bir kaynaştırma eğitimi yapılabilmesi için öneriler sunmak ve bunları geliştirmektir.
