The basic content of special education syllabus of 12-Year Basic Education, so called the “108 Special Education Syllabus”, includes regular education curriculum, special needs curriculum, and curriculum modification. The comprehensive curricula consist of six aspects, i.e., the human being-based, the state-based, the region-based, the school-based, the classroom-based, and the individual-based. For special need students, the individual-based is the most important, and flexibility is one of the most common words for special education teachers. In curriculum design, flexibility means curriculum modification and functional curriculum construction. In practice, flexibility implies activating teaching and multi- and flexible assessment. It is believed that curriculum modification is the key to a successful inclusive education. For implementing inclusive education effectively, special education teachers must be equipped with three curriculum competencies, i.e., knowing regular education curriculum, knowing special needs curriculum, and knowing how to connect and adjust the two. It is necessary to enrich, empower, and embolden teachers in this regard. Special education is adaptive education in nature, and it is crucial to implement differentiated instruction and modified assessment based on individual student’s strength and weakness in different subject domain. It is also essential to assess special needs student’s achievement by means of multiple measures, focusing on intra-individual differences, rather than on a single or general standard. Hopefully, the goal of the 12-year basic education program, “making every student successful”, could be realized through an effective inclusive education. |
