First,we met the headmaster of the school who was very kind and like a normal teacher in his casual clothes not in suits.We looked around and saw some classes each of special and normal.
If somebody has pyhsical disability, they are intagreted to normal classes.In normal classes,two teacher are ready to help them.One of them is especially for the special one.That's why they have enough time to be individual and find out the personal way goes solution.Population in the classes can not be more than 25.If I compare this situation to Turkey,we have classes which contains more than 25 pupils as normal. And again in normally we have one teacher each class.
If somebody has learning disability,they have special classes to be integrated to society.They do not have to learn mathematics,physics,chemistry at all.Teachers try to teach them social skills.In this point,you can realize that the common question is in Denmark 'what can you do for society' and then just do it! You do not have to spend your time to things that you cant do anytie.They know your abilities and learning capasity. Individual system really works!Students in Turkey have to learn all knowledge about all lessons even it wont be useful in the future for their career or job.In speacial classes,curriculum is different than normal schools'..In our public schools,not only pupils who have disabiltiy but also brilliant pupils have not got any useful chance to get educaiton individual way.
There was also another method to take the child who has a problem spesific subject to other special class for intensive courses to overcome the problem.
Materials,paintings,classes without doors,art classes,computers are other interesting things for me.
To sum up,It was my first experience about special needs education.But it really affected me to search some disabilities about my branch such as dyscalculia.
