“…Although students with disabilities have high STEM aspirations (Bittinger et al, 2021), obstacles in learning environments can inhibit their STEM success. Existing work has focused on the importance of parents (e.g., White et al, 2020;Whitney, 2016). In this paper, we confirm this finding for students with disabilities in STEM but also extend this finding to highlight the importance of family more broadly.…”

In this qualitative cross-case study, we examine the role of familial habitus in providing early access to navigational capital and opportunities predictive of STEM success. Interviews with 18 students with non-apparent disabilities at a large, four-year research university in New England showed that parents and family played a key role in multiple dimensions of student experiences with disability. We organized the findings around three themes about family: (a) family’s framing of disability and academic ability; (b) family support of STEM interests; and (c) family as STEM role models. We extend these findings to highlight the importance of family more broadly, supporting research that indicates the critical role that parental involvement plays in the development of STEM aspirations and success.

“…Empirical literature on educational outcomes consistently centers the importance of parental advocacy while highlighting that the capacity to engage in this advocacy is structured inequitably (e.g., Calarco, 2018;White et al, 2020;Whitney, 2016).…”

Digital classroom setup with inclusive settings is indicative of identifying the gaps in the present education system and thereby creating awareness among parents as well as teachers about the importance of Inclusive settings. Studies have made significant contributions to the need for inclusive education, focusing on unsolved problems in the education sector for decades. Creating awareness and forming a framework and structure to implement the aspect of inclusive education globally is the need of the hour. Technology has an imperative space in the current context of learning. The technological intervention is well curated with an exploratory case-let through the pedagogical context of Infelearn. The transformation of current education to inclusive education doesn't change overnight, and the changes should be gradually implemented which will lead to the direction of inclusive education.
