Empowerment Education
It’s easy to assume that our physical differences and our various opinions are what set us apart from one another. However, it is important to remember that although these differences can potentially divide us, they also have the power to bring us together. Efforts to support students and help them reach their full potential, such as special education programs, have positively impacted students whose relationships with their peers may be under strain due to unacknowledged differences.
The discussion about special education and the program’s students is surrounded by copious misconceptions. People often believe that students need constant assistance while doing the little things or that they are somehow less able, when in reality, what they often need is empowerment to fulfill their own full potential. Today, there are systems in place within schools in order to uplift students with intellectual and developmental disabilities and to better prepare them for the future.
