Inclusive Pedagogy

The focus of inclusive pedagogies should not be on embedding students into a system which excludes them from the outset but rather on transforming and democratising our pedagogies. According to the literature, inclusive pedagogy in HE is discussed in the following ways: 

• Inclusion as "appreciating difference"

• Inclusion as "making difference visible"

• Inclusion as "making difference invisible"

• Inclusion as a way of "addressing the needs of diverse students"

• Inclusion as "social justice"

• Inclusion as the "democratisation of knowledge"
