Teaching College Students with Intellectual Disability: Faculty Experiences with Inclusive Higher Education

As an increasing number of institutions establish inclusive higher education programmes, it is important to understand the experiences of faculty who welcome students with intellectual disabilities into their courses. This qualitative study explored the views of 23 university faculty who had recent experience teaching students with intellectual disabilities. The focus group interviews addressed the roles of teachers in inclusive classrooms, the strategies they found useful and the challenges they found difficult. It also offers recommendations for supporting teachers in this new task and suggests areas for future research.
