Abstract
This study examined educational projects that Dutch secondary teachers consider to be inclusive and their agency in implementing them. Using Banks' (1993) Multicultural Education (ME) model, we analyzed inclusive projects that twelve expert teachers mentioned having developed and used Personal Project Analysis (Little, 1983) to capture teachers' accompanied agency. Inclusive projects were considered meaningful, but poorly manageable and connected with daily teaching practice. A high degree of agency hinged on the ability to connect with existing curriculum and a management that supports teachers' inclusive initiatives. This paper refines ME's dimensions and uncovers misconceptions hindering teachers' agency in inclusive practices.
本研究探讨了荷兰中学教师认为具有全纳性的教育项目，以及他们在实施这些项目过程中的作用。利用班克斯（1993 年）的多元文化教育（ME）模式，我们分析了十二位专家教师提到的已开发的全纳项目，并利用个人项目分析（Little，1983 年）来捕捉教师的伴随代理。全纳项目被认为是有意义的，但可操作性差，与日常教学实践的联系不紧密。教师的高度能动性取决于与现有课程的衔接能力和支持教师全纳计划的管理。本文完善了 ME 的维度，并揭示了阻碍教师在全纳实践中发挥能动性的误区。
