After reading others posts, and doing some research on my own, I have realized that I want to focus on diversity and disabilities in education. The main question that is guiding my research is: What is inclusion, and why does it matter in education? I believe that this is a very important question because many people do not know exactly what inclusion is. In the field of education, inclusion is a very talked about topic. My major at Syracuse is inclusive elementary and special education, and most of my classes so far have been about inclusion, and why it works. The work that I have done so far in my previous courses will help me with my research because I now have some background information about inclusion, and I know the benefits when it is done correctly. This topic is important for me to understand for my future career because I want to be the kind of teacher who accepts and supports all of her students. I want each and every child to feel welcomed and safe in my classroom. I believe that inclusion is important for everyone to know about, not just teachers and teacher candidates because it can help people understand why it is essential to try to include others in our daily lives. Maybe if everyone understood inclusion, our world would be a more accepting place. The fields that matter most to my inquiry are education, and possibly psychology/science. This is because I am focusing specifically on education, and a lot of the articles I have found so far have studies that prove a certain point, or help explain inclusion.
