| dc.description.abstract | In a study focused on the experiences of inclusive education educators during the COVID-19 pandemic, six inclusive educators participated in phenomenological interviews. Interview data and other research studies provided insight into the lived experiences of participants during the COVID-19 pandemic, including social isolation, loneliness, wellness, and resilience. Responses were analyzed using a descriptive phenomenological approach, resulting in four meta themes, and nine themes. Findings indicate that due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the participants’ experiences, roles as educators, and overall resilience have significantly altered alongside the support and communication from administrators and community members. Recommendations for education administrators by the participants were also discussed. | |
