Content Nuggets Explore Key Ideas About Inclusion

Early CHOICES and the Early Intervention Training Program at the University of Illinois recently launched a new series called Understanding Inclusion. Each “nugget” includes bite-size videos with embedded resources and activities to help understand, promote, and advocate for inclusion for children birth to age 5. Content was developed with families to ensure that they would be useful to families, practitioners, service coordinators, educators, and administrators in early intervention and early childhood. Each topic has a guide to support understanding and provide resources on the topic. Topic guides can be used as a companion tool for the learner and as a stand-alone tool to help facilitate discussions and extended learning opportunities. The topics are: Inclusion Is a Journey, Least Restrictive Environment, Commitment to Inclusive Practices (Law, Policy), Benefits of Inclusive Practices, Inclusive Settings, and Implementing and Advocating for Inclusion. Resources are in English and Spanish.
