Abstract

<p>【Purpose】In order to facilitate cooperation between teachers and mothers of children with developmental disabilities, it is necessary for schoolteachers of regular classes to comprehend the mothers’ outlook on education. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to investigate how these mothers formulate their outlook on education. In addition, this study examines the factors that facilitate or inhibit cooperation between teachers and mothers.</p><p>【Methods】Nine mothers were interviewed, after which the contents were analyzed using the modified grounded theory approach.</p><p>【Results】The findings show that the mothers’ outlook on education was characterized by ambivalence in terms of special educational support. Consequently, it was hypothesized that these mothers would stop cooperating with teachers if the latter failed to meet the mothers’ ambivalent needs.</p><p>【Discussion/Conclusion】The results suggest that the following effective measures must be employed in order to facilitate mother-teacher cooperation:</p><p>1) Discuss special educational needs from both perspectives;</p><p>2) Suggest ways to achieve solutions that are suitable for the children;</p><p>3) Determine methods to deal with the children’s failures.</p>
