As a facilitator, a teacher provides a condusive learning environment and simplifies the most challenging tasks to the learner to enable him/her aster and understand the concepts. The teacher is also expected to prepare adequately and provide a relevant teaching/learning resource which enables the learning process become real and meaningfuL A questionnaire was developed for the respondents. This tool contained the level of teachers attitude (perception) in areas namely; personal information, qualification, knowledge about epilepsy, knowledge about inclusive education and teachers attitude After the collection of data the researcher calculated the frequency and the percentage to determine the profile of the teachers as to age, gender, experience, marital status and academic qualifications~ The weighed mean was used to determine the level of teacher’s attitudes in the four areas mentioned above. The obtained data was expressed in numerical values. The study found out that the level of teacher’s attitude towards people with epilepsy was generally poor and that this was due to lack of enough information about epilepsy. The study recommended that the government should sensitize its population about epilepsy and come up with clear policies which will protect the rights of the people with epilepsy. | en_US |
