Attitudes of Teachers towards Teaching as Determinants of Changing Attitudes towards the Integration of Students with Learning Difficulties
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Positive attitudes of teachers towards teaching, are important determinants of their positive attitudes towards the integration of children with learning difficulties into regular elementary schools (Kii-GlavaJ, 2000c). Those attitudes could influence significantly the change of teacherc'attitudes towards the integration of children with fearning difficulties. This change is encouraged through the implementation of Program of education of teachers for acceptance of children with special needs. This hypothesis is verified through Pearson's coefficient of correlation in both an experimental (N=49) and a control group (N=49). The sample were regular elementary schoof teachers from the Zagreb area who were equalized on the variables: sex, level of eduiation and worliing place. The correlation of change between the experimental and control groups, in their attitudes towards integration as well as their attitudes towards teaching, was also established. The results confirmed the existence of the correlation in experimental group but they did not confirm it in the control group.
