Research on the involvement of students with learning disabilities in the teaching process (on the example of teaching of Georgian language and literature, 5th grade)

The aim of our research was to study the participation of students in the Georgian language and literature classes through observation; we found out how fully they are involved in the learning process. The observation was carried out in the 5th grades of specific five public schools, where students with learning disabilities were recorded. The observation of the lessons revealed that in most cases, the activities to be performed according to the plan remain a formality and the teacher cannot work according to the curriculum, due to the reasons that there is no time for the rest, and the students themselves have a low motivation to study. The observation showed that the teachers participating in the research, especially in numerous classes, have difficulty in teaching students with learning disabilities together with the class and preparing tasks and resources based on individual curricula. Their answers also revealed the need for a teacher's assistant to work permanently in the classroom, which is a well-tested and successful practice in European and American schools.
