“…A pesar de ello, existen estudios que han encontrado que el profesorado presenta actitudes generalmente positivas en la aplicación de estas modificaciones (Abdella, 2018;Elbeheri et al, 2018;Greenberger, 2016), las cuales reportan beneficios muy significativos para el alumnado, como el aumento del rendimiento, de la participación, de la expresión e incluso de las calificaciones de los estudiantes (Dalton, 2017;Schreuer y Sachs, 2014).…”

“…El profesorado se muestra dispuesto a realizar las modificaciones necesarias, coincidiendo este dato con los hallados en trabajos previos (por ej., Abdella, 2018;Greenberger, 2016). Estos resultados pueden indicar una mayor sensibilidad de los participantes de este estudio ante la diversidad existente en las universidades españolas, frente a otros docentes de otros países tales como Estados Unidos o algunas regiones de Canadá (Banks, 2019;Lightfoot et al, 2018;Toutain, 2019).…”

Las universidades españolas tienen el gran reto de garantizar los principios de igualdad de oportunidades, no discriminación y accesibilidad de todos los estudiantes. Este estudio se centra en conocer las creencias y acciones del profesorado universitario para responder a las necesidades del alumnado con discapacidad, así como en detectar las necesidades del profesorado para realizar modificaciones en sus asignaturas. Participaron 42 docentes seleccionados como inclusivos por un grupo de estudiantes con discapacidad. Todos ellos pertenecían a 6 universidades públicas españolas e impartían docencia en la Facultad de Ciencias de la Educación. Se llevó a cabo un diseño cualitativo basado en el método biográfico. Los resultados evidencian que el profesorado presenta una actitud generalmente positiva hacia la realización de ajustes razonables en el aula y los ajustes razonables más aplicados son aquellos referidos al acceso al currículum. Se identifican algunas necesidades para seguir avanzando en materia de inclusión en Educación Superior.

“…From the studies listed in Table 1, it can be concluded that faculty members demonstrate generally positive attitudes towards students with disabilities. But, some research indicate less favourable attitudes towards those with "nonvisible" disabilities, such as learning disabilities (Greenberger, 2016;Sniatecki, Perry, and Snell, 2015), an attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, and psychiatric disabilities. These "nonvisible" disabilities typically require adaptations in the area of instructions, course content delivery, and assessment.…”

The proportion of higher education students with disabilities is increasing at university level. In Macedonia, there are no statistics about the number of students with disabilities included in the academic institutions. The inadequate accessibility of higher education institutions, the lack of support, the negative social attitudes and social isolation, as well as the low financial capacity influence the success of students with disabilities and affect their inclusion in the higher education. Тhis study aims to conduct an in-depth review of some of these challenges that are present in the higher education of students with disabilities. A detailed analysis of 11 publications was performed. We can conclude from those publications that faculty members demonstrate generally positive attitudes towards students with disabilities, with some research indicating less favourable attitudes towards those with "nonvisible" disabilities, such as learning disabilities. Also, there are conflicting results as to whether students with disabilities have an equivalent academic performance with those without disabilities.

The social model of disability assumes that the university environment sometimes creates disability related obstacles and barriers. This study investigated faculty members’ attitudes toward students with disabilities and the latter’s capability to succeed in Saudi Arabian universities. The study surveyed 719 faculty members and conducted interviews with 8 faculty members from five Saudi universities. Data were analyzed using descriptive and thematic analyses. Differences in participants’ responses based on gender, previous experience teaching students with disabilities, academic college affiliation, academic rank, and years of experience were examined along with the types of professional development desired by faculty. Faculty members had positive attitudes toward students with disabilities and their abilities to succeed, but with statistically significant differences in terms of gender, academic rank, and college, with women, College of Education, and lower-ranking respondents being the most positive. Faculty members also wanted professional development opportunities to enhance these student’s educational experience.
