Abstract

The focus of my doctorate study is early career teachers (ECT) teaching students with diverse learning needs in general education classrooms. Evidence suggests ECTs experience challenge in managing the workload expectation of classroom teaching. Given the inclusive education expectations of Australian schools, ECTs are expected to effectively cater for the diverse learning needs of all students in their classroom. Using a constructivist grounded theory (CGT) methodology, the lived experiences of ECTs teaching students with diverse learning needs in general education classroom settings will be explored. My presentation will provide an overview of the use of CGT as a research methodology to explore this phenomenon.
