Contact Us What is IDEA?
IDEA consist of six initials which are the key words of rehabilitation education for special groups, it is also the guideline of how to formulate and implement the rehabilitation education.
The core concepts of IDEA include:
Inclusive & Individualized: Inclusive education requires individualized support, and individualized support needs to be based on the achievement of inclusive education. Inclusive education cannot be achieved without individualized support, and it is meaningless if individualized intervention is not based on the inclusive education.
Evidence-based & Ecological: Rehabilitation education need to choose evidence-based teaching theory and method, it also needs to consider the actual situation of the environment. The most effective rehabilitation education is to choose the evidenced-based rehabilitation teaching method and combine with the actual teaching environment.
Whose IDEA is this?
As the key words of rehabilitation education that teachers and parents must know, the IDEA concept is integrated into three systems:
"Individualized Education Program" (IEP) for children: Our IEP team uses effective educational methods to improve children's skills, based on the current, focusing on the future, and promoting inclusive integration.
"Individualized Family Support Plan" (IFSP) for parents: Our IFSP team provides families with personalized and customized rehabilitation education solutions, including family environmental assessment, courses for parents, and psychological supervision, etc.
Professional Training Plan" (PD) for teachers: Our PD team unites domestic and foreign experts in order to cultivate excellent teachers who are both caring and professional and be able to fully implement the IDEA concept.

Thus, children who are in the “Golden intervention period” can have the opportunity to return to kindergartens.
Early Intervention Program Mainly improve children's basic learning skills (learning-to-learn), including basic speaker and listener skills, imitation skills, visual analysis skills, etc.
Integration Plan Mainly focusing on the development of prerequisite skills for children to enter group-based environment (basic advance skills that are needed in a classroom), such as sitting in a group, receiving group instructions, raising hands, observing and learning, parallel games, asking for help, taking turns, transition between activities, expressing needs, etc.
