“…In the mid 1980"s when the REI began in the United States, both proponents and opponents of inclusion movements shared a common concern about the general educational system not being prepared to meet the diverse educational needs of students with disabilities and to remediate their learning deficiencies, especially general education teachers. The major concern was whether or not general education teachers were prepared for successful inclusive education, because successful inclusion necessitates highly qualified teachers who were ready to meet the needs of exceptional learners (Allday, Neilsen-Gatti, & Hudson, 2013;Harvey, Yssel, Bauserman, & Merbler, 2010;Smith, Polloway, Patton, & Dowdy, 2012;Thompkins & Deloney, 1995). The purpose of this study is, therefore, to investigate how much inclusive education has progressed toward the goal of providing the best education to students with disabilities.…”
