Abstract | This study employs a narrative research methodology to explore the instructional modifications and teaching practices utilized by Filipino Special Education (SPED) teachers in the United States to meet the demands of 21st-century learning. Through in-depth, semi-structured interviews with ten purposely selected SPED educators, key themes emerged, including technology integration, differentiated instruction, cultural sensitivity, individualized education plans (IEPs), family and community involvement, and the creation of sensory-friendly environments. Participants highlighted the importance of leveraging technology for personalized learning, implementing varied instructional strategies to accommodate diverse learning styles, and incorporating culturally relevant materials to foster inclusivity. Regular IEP reviews and active family engagement were identified as critical for enhancing student motivation and success. Additionally, creating sensory-friendly classroom environments was emphasized as essential for supporting students' sensory processing needs. The findings indicate that these multifaceted strategies not only promote academic achievement but also enhance social-emotional development and inclusivity among students with special needs. Recommendations include ongoing professional development for educators, increased parental involvement in the IEP process, and systematic reviews of instructional strategies. This research contributes to a deeper understanding of how Filipino SPED teachers adapt their practices in diverse contexts, ultimately informing educational policies and teacher preparation programs aimed at fostering equitable learning environments. |
