While I have been doing my assignment 2, reading through the article that I chose, “Creating a Learning environment for all children: Are teachers able and willing?”, I came out with a number of questions and reflections related to the educational system in Chile. And also answering the question, Do the readings engage disciplinary debates in the field of educational research and, if so, how?

First, I think teachers disposition towards inclusive education and preparation is a debate in Chile educational system. Educational institutions believe that teachers are prepare for the inclusion of children with disabilities in their normal classroom, but I think, as a general view, teachers demonstrate that they don’t have the enough preparation to do so. Teachers might count with the dispositions, but they hardly have the skills and knowledge necessary for this important process. But some private schools continue accepting children with specific needs on the regular system, without preparing their teachers or without provide them with support or other specialist collaboration. Private Schools have a economical interest for maintaining those children on the schools, but the lack of responsibility they have when they dice to incorporate children with disabilities is unbelievable, and causes many educational debates on my country.
