Keywords:
Inclusive education, social educator, resource teacher, differentiated instruction, personalized education, collaboration.Abstract
This article analyzes the specific responsibilities, distinctions, and complementary aspects of social educators and resource teachers within the context of inclusive education. Against the backdrop of challenges faced by traditional educational models in supporting students with diverse needs, inclusive education strives to ensure high-quality, personalized learning for all students. The research utilizes a methodology based on the synthesis of existing literature and comparative analysis. The results indicate that while the social educator primarily focuses on students' socio-emotional well-being, the classroom environment, and school-community collaboration, the resource teacher provides academic support to students with special educational needs through differentiated instruction, universal design, and assistive technologies. The discussion highlights the distinctiveness of these roles, their complementary nature, and the significance of effective collaboration. In conclusion, the partnership between both educators is of crucial importance for the success of inclusive education.
