“…In the dimension ‘values and attitudes’, it seems that girls are more favorable than boys to inclusive teaching strategies. It is consistent with Tan’s findings (Tan, 2015). Perhaps girls have more empathy than boys and like to help others.…”

Inclusive education has become a new global agenda in educational reform since Salamanca Statement in 1994. However, inclusion in education cannot be realized unless inclusive education teachers enable them to implement inclusive teaching strategies to meet all students’ diverse needs. This study aims to analyze the pupil perspectives of inclusive teaching strategies in Chinese regular primary schools by designing a questionnaire. The questionnaire is developed and validated with satisfactory reliability and validity to collect quantitative data from the 730 students of three regular primary schools in Shenzhen City, one of the largest cities in China. The literature has summarized three dimensions regarding inclusive teaching strategies: ‘values and attitudes,’ ‘management and environment,’ and ‘teaching and instruction’. The results show that these regular primary schools have inclusive values, and students have positive attitudes toward inclusive teaching strategies. Students think that sample schools have inclusive school management and environment concerning inclusive teaching strategies, and some inclusive teaching strategies are used, but others are not so often used in their classrooms. The findings are discussed, and implications for policy and research are presented.

“…In Africa, Ghana has recognized the value of inclusive education and began implementing some form of inclusive education since the 1990s [2]. A series of international agreements were published to develop inclusion these years, and some of the important international agreements above signed since 1989 which have promoted inclusive education in the global context [3]. The selected international agreements, including the Convention on the Rights of the Child [4], World Conference on Education for All [5], Standard Rules on the Equalization of Opportunities for Persons with Disabilities [6], Salamanca Statement and Framework for Action [7], Dakar Framework for Action [8], the Millennium Development Goals [9], Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities [10], and Incheon Declaration [11] are related to inclusive education and closely linked to this study.…”

However, it does not mean that inclusive education only began in 1989, but it highlights the fact that the right to education for all children became a more prominent international issue [3]. In China, inclusive education also occupies an important position.…”

Objective: Current evidence shows that public interest in inclusive education has been rising since the implementation of Action Plan for the development and enhancement of special education during the Fourteenth Five-Year period in China. The aim of this study was to quantify recent trends in public interest and related online search behavior for inclusive education in the context of this Action Plan. Methods: Baidu Index, a database of search engines with massive information, was employed. By searching for the keyword inclusive education, and using content analysis to understand the data information related to inclusive education. This study also extracted the search trend data of Chinese netizens on the related terms "Law on the Protection of Persons with Disabilities " and "Regulation on the Education of Persons with Disabilities" from January 1, 2022 to October 27, 2022. Finally, it compares the search trend of public search interests of inclusive education with related terms. Results: The public's interest in "inclusive education" and the related terms "Law on the Protection of Persons with Disabilities " and "Regulation on the Education of Persons with Disabilities" has been on the rise since the implementation of the Action Plan. The search trend reached its peak in February and May 2022, the valley in January 2022, and the search volume in other time periods tended to be stable. Conclusion: Baidu Index can understand the public's interest in inclusive education. The study shows that the rising search trend of inclusive education is closely related to the implementation of the Action Plan. The search volume of the "Law on the Protection of Persons with Disabilities " and "Regulation on the Education of Persons with Disabilities" is basically the same as that of "inclusive education", but the average search volume daily of "inclusive education" is slightly higher than that of "Regulation on the Education of Persons with Disabilities".

“…In China, the launch of the Action Plan for the development and enhancement of special education during the Fourteenth Five-Year period in China aims to promote the highquality development of education, effectively guarantee the right of students with disabilities to equal access to education, and let them and regular students understand and respect each other, grow and progress together in an inclusive environment (Ministry of Education, 2022). Even though a series of international agreements were published to develop inclusion these years, and some of the important international agreements above signed since 1989 have promoted inclusive education in the global context (Tan, 2021), this experimental research proved some challenges. The Chinese preservice physical educators' implicit attitudes toward students with disabilities were negative.…”

Purpose: Aim to explore whether preservice physical educators’ implicit attitude toward students with disabilities could be improved by a mid-term adapted physical education training program. Design: A randomized and controlled trial was deployed in the current experiment. Subjects were randomly divided into two groups (Experimental group and control group) after the pre-test of IAT. Post-test IAT was conducted for two groups after the training program for the experimental group. Findings: Chinese preservice physical educators’ implicit attitudes toward students with disabilities were negative. They also had a prejudice against students with disabilities. But the implicit attitudes toward students with disabilities could be improved by mid-term adapted physical education training. Furthermore, gender and contact experience with disabilities had no significant influence on the change in their implicit attitude.
