Authors : Belaid Louiza . Sarnou Hanane .

Abstract

Teaching is a very hard mission especially with learners who belong to the 21st century. This difficulty cannot be equally compared to impaired pupils. Unlike learners without disabilities, disabled learners are strong-willed to learn and have the right to achieve better and have a successful career. This category of learners has special needs which require the educators to set their learning needs and accommodate their teaching styles accordingly in order to integrate them successfully in the learning process. In this perspective, our main objective in this work is to assess the importance of integrating an inclusive approach in our classrooms to meet the different needs of learners. As a research instrument, a questionnaire is administered to twenty teachers at university. The findings reveal that all teachers faced difficulties in teaching students with special needs as they have explained the difficulties of engaging them with learners without disabilities arguing that the best way to increase their performance is their incorporation in special classes, which offer a comfortable climate and constructive approaches in teaching.
