{"abstract":"This quantitative descriptive study examined teaching strategies applied to learners with special educational needs (LSEN) in mainstream elementary classrooms to inform enhanced classroom activities. Conducted in a public school district in Cebu Province, Philippines, the study involved 30 general education teachers with LSEN in their classes. Data were gathered using a 25-item researcher-developed questionnaire with a 4-point Likert scale and analyzed using frequencies, percentages, and weighted means. Respondent demographics showed 60% were aged 20–29 years, mostly teaching lower primary grades. Teachers reported positive perceptions of inclusion (overall mean = 2.65), acknowledged the need for additional training and collaboration (overall mean = 3.24), and strongly endorsed practices like differentiated tasks, peer tutoring, and cooperative learning (overall mean = 3.68). Student needs clustered around behavioral (97%), cognitive (77%), communication (73%), and sensory (57%) domains. Critical supports included expanded resources, added planning time, smaller class sizes, and ongoing professional development (overall mean = 3.55). Findings suggest co-teaching, deliberate differentiation, and structured peer-supported activities can strengthen inclusive practice. Schools may prioritize capacity-building, resource allocation, and systematic collaboration. Limitations include the small, single-district sample and reliance on self-report data without inferential testing.","abstract_source":"gemini_shortened","authors":["Julie Ann Forrosuelo"],"date":"2025-10-07","doi":"10.70838/pemj.470806","id":6498,"issue":8,"journal":{"issn":"2822-4353","name":"Psychology and Education: A Multidisciplinary Journal"},"pdf_sha256":"d0883ab1b44cdee80d8da80e42c5925db5cbcdd7ed7a1ea95b4503d828c2f19a","schema":"scimatic-article/1","title":"Teaching Strategies Applied to Learners with Special Needs in Selected Elementary Schools: Basis for Enhanced Mainstream Classroom Activities","volume":47}
