Název v původním jazyce

Teachers’ knowledge and attitude toward children with epilepsy

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Epilepsy is a rather common disease in children and also in adults. It is defined as a primary chronic brain disease manifested by repetitive nerve seizures of different character and course. Because of this diversity, epilepsy has completely different effects on children’s life and adults as well. Purpose of Study: The purpose of conducting research was to investigate views and experience of pre-school and primary school teachers with integration and education of children with epilepsy. Methods: The investigation was conducted using mixed method research with application of questionnaire and interview. Findings and Results: Data from the analysis imply that most teachers knew what epilepsy is, what the disease course is like and what potential problems with education of children with this condition are. The prevailing attitudes of teachers towards inclusion of children with this disease were positive; however concerns and experience with certain problems related to their integration into a group of other children were noticeable. Teachers’ attitudes are very much correlated with their knowledge. Our conclusion is that knowledge of teachers in the field of chronic diseases of children requires improvement. Therefore, focus on education not only about epilepsy but also about other chronic diseases during teacher preparation is required.
