Exploring the emerging identities of special needs officers in Singapore primary and secondary schools

2010-12, Lim, Sirene May Yin, Wong, Meng Ee, Cohen, Libby G., Tan, Denise Ching Ting

"The study aimed to explore the emerging identities and school responsibilities of a group of AED (LBS) that graduated in 2009 from the NIE Diploma in Special Education (DISE) programme. The project proposal had these research questions as a guide, and these were not changed in the course of the study: 1. How do the AED(LBS) participants view themselves and define their roles in Singapore's diverse school contexts and settings? 2. How do they fit into/ shape their roles in their schools to support children with special needs? 3. How do they create their own communities of learning to further shape their identities and roles? 4. How can their teaching and learning inform their preparation at the NIE (and/or teacher education)?" -- p. 1.
