  2. Inclusion for Students with Special Needs “Inclusive education is a process of strengthening the capacity of the education system to reach out to all learners and can thus be understood as a key strategy to achieve EFA (Education For All).” -Policy Guidelines on Inclusion in Education (2009), Paris: UNESCO. A New Approach to Teaching and Learning: • Project based learning allows students to apply their knowledge of the content and develop mastery of technological skills. • International online collaboration with their peers allows students to engage in cross-cultural exchange that will increase their understanding of other traditions and perspectives and build cultural literacy. Exchange 2.0: The Science of Impact, the Imperative of Implementation (2012)., http://www.usip.org/events/exchange-20-the-science-impact-the-imperative-implementation.
