TASK 3:

 Define the following terms:

1.Special Education
2. Inclusive Education
3. Disability
4. Impairment
5 Handicap

1. Special Education: Special Education refers to a type of individualized teaching approach

designed for students with unique learning needs or disabilities. These students may have
difficulties in learning, processing information, or participating in traditional classroom
settings. Special Education aims to provide appropriate educational support and
accommodations to help these students achieve their full potential.

2. Inclusive Education: Inclusive Education is an educational approach that promotes the full
and equal participation of all students, regardless of their abilities or disabilities, in
mainstream educational settings. The goal of inclusive education is to create a diverse and
inclusive learning environment where students with different needs can learn together, with
appropriate support and accommodations provided as needed.

3. Disability: Disability refers to a physical or mental impairment that may limit a person's
abilities to perform certain tasks or activities. Disabilities can be temporary or permanent,
visible or invisible, and can result from various causes such as genetic factors, accidents, or
illnesses.

4. Impairment: Impairment is a term used to describe a loss or abnormality in the

psychological, physiological, or anatomical functions of an individual. Impairments can be
physical, mental, or sensory and may affect a person's ability to perform daily tasks or interact
with others.

5. Handicap: A handicap refers to the disadvantage or limitation faced by an individual due

to their disability or impairment. Handicaps can result from barriers in the environment, lack
of appropriate support, or societal attitudes that prevent people with disabilities from fully
participating in various aspects of life, including education, employment, and social activities.

 Define and give 3 examples

1. Intellectual Differences 5 Behavioral differences

2. Communication differences 6. Multiple and severe disabilities
3. Learning disabilities 7. Physical differences
4. Sensory difference

1. Intellectual Differences: Intellectual differences refer to variations in cognitive abilities,

learning styles, or thinking processes among individuals. These differences can manifest in a
person's capacity to learn, understand, reason, and problem-solve.
Examples include having a higher intelligence quotient (IQ), being gifted, or having learning
disabilities such as dyslexia or attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).
2. Communication Differences: Communication differences involve the way people express
themselves, understand, and interact with others through verbal, nonverbal, or written means.
These differences can arise from language barriers, social communication disorders, or specific
communication needs.
Examples include having a speech impediment, being on the autism spectrum, or using sign
language as a primary means of communication.

3. Learning Disabilities: Learning disabilities are neurologically-based processing challenges that

can impact an individual's ability to learn, read, write, listen, speak, reason, and remember. These
disabilities are not due to a lack of intelligence or motivation but rather stem from differences in
the brain's structure or function.
Examples include dyslexia, dyscalculia (difficulty with math), and developmental coordination
disorder (DCD).

4. Sensory Differences: Sensory differences refer to variations in how individuals perceive and
process sensory information from their environment. These differences can affect one or more of
the five primary senses (sight, hearing, touch, taste, and smell) or involve additional senses like
preconception and vestibule function.
Examples include color blindness, being deaf or hard of hearing, or having hypersensitivity to
certain sounds, textures, or lights.

5. Behavioral Differences: Behavioral differences involve the way individuals express their
emotions, thoughts, and needs through their actions and interactions with others. These differences
can be influenced by genetics, environment, or personal experiences.
Examples include having anxiety or depression, exhibiting obsessive-compulsive behaviors, or
displaying autistic traits.

6. Multiple and Severe Disabilities: This term refers to individuals who have a combination of
two or more significant disabilities that affect various aspects of their life, such as physical,
cognitive, communication, and/or sensory abilities. These individuals often require extensive
support and accommodations to participate in daily activities and access education and community
resources.
Examples include cerebral palsy, intellectual disability, and visual and hearing impairments.

7. Physical Differences: Physical differences encompass variations in an individual's physical

attributes, such as height, weight, or body structure. These differences can be due to genetic
factors, medical conditions, or injuries. Examples include being a short stature, having a limb
difference, or using a wheelchair due to mobility impairment.
