Why is the education of special children important?
The education of special children is very important because their physical and mental characteristics and educational needs are different. Adopt general or special teaching methods and means to maximize the potential of the educated, so that they can increase their knowledge, acquire skills, have good moral character and improve their adaptability. Psychological research shows that 0-6 years old and 7 years old are important periods for the development of individual nervous system structure, the key period for the development of individual psychology, and the important period for the development of physiology, perception and sports. During this period, the individual's nervous system has great plasticity and strong adaptability to the external environment. If proper education is given to disabled individuals in time during this period, it will be beneficial to the reorganization of individual physiological functions, the metabolism of various body functions, and the correction and rehabilitation of damaged organs.
