Beschreibung
According to current international literature 10 to 15% of global population has dyslexia and Special Educational Needs (SEN) putting more than 700 million children and adults worldwide at risk of life-long illiteracy and social exclusion. A major problem of todays education for students with SEN is the education system constraints which prevent them from being effectively included in the learning process of a Foreign Language (FL), depriving them of their right to develop a global voice and identity, a necessary life skill for the 21st century. The goals of this pioneering research were to identify the feasible and realistic ways that students with SEN could most effectively be included in EFL mainstream classrooms, in the light of all barriers that exist in their context, as well as to empower FL teachers with a useful tool for effective inclusion through differentiated instruction. The results indicate that despite all constraints, the strategies implemented in this study, significantly raised the performance of the students with SEN in the EFL classrooms, while benefit all students.
