Educators have been making strides in the research into and practices supporting the policy of mainstreaming students with disability. A move towards including students with intellectual disability in community schools with all the other students can be seen in many countries' education systems, including that of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The 'rights of the child' has been the main argument put forward by advocates of this policy in an attempt to move from the medical to the social model. This study argues that, although mainstreaming can be viewed as a positive trend toward effective education, its implementation remains somewhat problematic. It is believed that more investigative research into professionals' attitudes is needed to improve service provision and inform the administration of mainstreaming practices. The attitudes of special education teachers on the policy of mainstreaming are examined and emerging key themes discussed. Furthermore, challenges that continue to inhibit mainstreaming practices in Saudi Arabia are identified.

The global trend for women's policy has selected gender mainstreaming to change unequal gender relation. The gender mainstreaming means that the gender perspective is integrated into all policy processes to accomplish gender equality. In other words, 'gender' should be considered as a basic factor such as classes, regions, and races when a policy is established and implemented. The government has implemented various gender mainstreaming policies to integrate gender perspectives. This study is to examine officials' perception about various gender mainstreaming policies. The survey was conducted for Daejeon city officials (699 men and 457 women). Officials' perception is very important, because it is an important means used as a tool in shaping and implementing policies. Variables such as gender, age, position, length of service, work place, etc. were chosen and the differences between variables were analyzed. The analysis showed that gender mainstreaming policies were perceived as ones only for women. Therefore, various education programs according to gender, age, position and length of service should be developed to improve the effectiveness of gender mainstreaming policies. In addition, education programs for officials to improve gender sensitiveness should be developed and expanded.

This study investigated differences in play types of preschool children with disabilities both in mainstreamed and segregated classrooms. The play behaviors of 50 preschool children with disabilities were observed and videotaped during free play time. Differences were found in children's dramatic and group play. Conclusions were that mainstreamed preschool program emphasizing a play-based curriculum could be an effective model for children with disabilities by providing for a variety of play types. Implications for mainstreaming education and for teacher education were discussed.

The purpose of this study is to establish fundamental standards of architectural planning concerning special class facilities in order to offer the basic information on the appropriate spatial organization of the special classroom by looking at the relationship between learning activities and living activities and the existing spatial organization. At present, there are no proper architectural standards which correspond to special class children's handicap and it's various characteristics. The special classes are just using ordinary classrooms without a considerations of the children with manifold handicap. In this sense, this study deals with appropriate special class facilities corresponding to the various characteristics of children's handicap, the contacting activities of special children with ordinary children and finally proper environment for the mainstreaming education which special education pursues.

과학기술의 젠더 불균형을 개선하기 위한 정책적 시도가 이루어져왔음에도 불구하고 한국 과학기술계에서 여성은 여전히 과소대표되고 있다. 과학기술 젠더 불균형 개선을 위해서는 인력 구조의 측면에서만이 아니라 조직 문화, 교육 제도, 연구 환경에 걸친 다양한 분야에서 젠더 포괄성이 성공적으로 증진된 사례를 모아 분석할 필요가 있다. 본 논문은 과학기술계의 젠더 불균형을 개선하기 위해 과학기술 교육, 연구, 직업적 환경의 전반에 걸쳐 시도된 국외의 성공적 사례들을 수집하였다. 논문의 주된 논의는 다음과 같다. 우선 성공적인 젠더 다양성 증진 사례들이 과학기술계의 제도적, 문화적 환경에 대한 성인지(gender-sensitivity)적 관점에 기반을 두고 있음을 논의하고자 한다. 다음으로 성인지 관점에서 출발한 젠더 불균형 개선 시도들이 일부 여성과학기술자들의 지위 향상을 넘어 과학기술의 개선에 기여할 수 있음을 논의할 것이다. 마지막으로 본 논문은 한국의 과학기술 젠더 불균형 개선을 위한 방안을 제시할 것이다.

Over the past few decades, gender equality has been considered one of the fundamental principles and a significant crosscutting issue in international development. However, beyond applying 'gender equality' as a policy buzzword, there has been a lack of critical reviews on how generally 'gender equality in education' is understood and constructed in Korea's development programs and projects. In this regard, this paper explores the use of vocabularies and semantic meanings of gender equality in the Korean Government's Academic Cooperation Program and its 52 projects. By applying mixed contents analysis as a method, the research resulted in several findings: first, the policy papers recently highlighted Korea's directions on gender mainstreaming and gender-sensitive approaches in international development. Second, 'integrating women and girls' into education institutions was emphasized in various projects; third, the term women rather than gender were used in the texts, highlighting their position as a 'marginalized group.' Lastly, there was a lack of evidence of projects dealing with changing gender-based power relations. The constructed gendered relations and powers were identified throughout projects, usually acting as barriers to project activities. However, they were only identified, not challenged, by the program. In conclusion, whilst Korean international development and educational development discourse actively embrace Women in Development (WID) and Gender and Development (GAD) in their programs, it is time to consider the issue of gender equality from different standpoints, such as identity, rights, and capabilities and a more active engagement with Korea's domestic issues in gender discourse and practices is also needed.

Background and Objectives: To assess the academic performance, communication skills, and psychosocial development of prelingual deaf children with cochlear implants (CIs) attending mainstream schools, and to evaluate the impact of auditory speech perception on their classroom performance. Subjects and Methods: As participant, 67 children with CI attending mainstream schools were included. A survey was conducted using a structured questionnaire on academic performance in the native language, second language, mathematics, social studies, science, art, communication skills, self-esteem, and social relations. Additionally, auditory and speech performances on the last follow-up were reviewed retrospectively. Results: Most implanted children attending mainstream school appeared to have positive self-esteem and confidence, and had little difficulty in conversing in a quiet classroom. Also, half of the implanted children (38/67) scored above average in general academic achievement. However, academic achievement in the second language (English), social studies, and science were usually poorer than general academic achievement. Furthermore, half of the implanted children had difficulty in understanding the class content (30/67) or conversing with peers in a noisy classroom (32/67). These difficulties were significantly associated with poor speech perception. Conclusions: Improving the listening environment for implanted children attending mainstream schools is necessary.

본 논문은 발달장애인의 역량강화를 통해 지역사회로의 자연스러운 전환을 목표로 한 전환과정과 프로그램을 개발하기 위한 연구이다. 연구목적을 달성하기 위하여 문헌연구, 관련 프로그램 사례조사, 전문가 심층면접 방법을 활용하였으며 연구의 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 현재 발달장애인들을 고려한 전환과정은 지나치게 제한되어 있고 이들의 특성을 고려하지 못하고 있다. 둘째, 발달장애인을 위한 새로운 고등교육프로그램이 새로운 전환과정으로 시작되고 있으나 중등학교와 연계가 부족하다. 셋째, 중등학교 이후 발달장애인을 위한 대학프로그램에서 중요하게 고려되어야 하는 요인은 자기인지와 자기이해이다. 이 결과를 중심으로 한국에서 발달장애인을 위한 대학 내 전환과정과 프로그램을 제안하면 첫째, 발달장애인을 위한 중등학교 이후 전환과정은 최소한 발달장애인의 특성과 자기이해와 자기인지가 이루어질 수 있도록 주류화교육이 이루어져야 하며, 이를 고려할 때 대학 내에서의 전환과정 구성은 하나의 대안이 될수 있다. 둘째, 대학 내 구성되는 고등교육프로그램은 다음과 같은 측면이 고려되어 구성될 필요가 있다. ① 대학 내의 많은 고등교육 관련 프로그램의 지원을 받을 수 있도록 연계되거나 지원망이 구축될 필요가 있다. ② 대학 내의 모든 프로그램에 발달장애학생들이 참여할 수 있도록 문호가 개방되어야 한다. ③ 대학 내의 전문 인력들이 필요에 따라 참여할 수 있도록 인적구성이 체계화되고 연계될 수 있어야 한다. ④ 대학 내의 비장애학생들이 발달장애학생들의 프로그램에 참여할 수 있도록 통합학습이나 활동이 자연스럽게 이루어질 수 있도록 해야 한다.
