This image shows four models of diversity in education: Exclusion (outsiders are left out), Segregation (separated from others), Integration (present but not fully included), and Inclusion (everyone learns and interacts together equally). True inclusion means belonging, participation, and valuing all individuals within the same environment.

(Margaret Flood, 2023)

This video will help you understand the essential elements of an inclusive learning environment.

Additionally, it offers a few active learning strategies that teachers can implement to foster an inclusive learning environment. To guarantee accessibility and participation for all, it makes use of frameworks such as differentiated instruction and Universal Design for Learning (UDL). The strategies within this video can help equip educators for a variety of real-world situations!

Three primary areas are covered by the UDL Guidelines to assist instructors in addressing learner diversity:

Self-control, maintaining effort and perseverance, and generating interest are all components of engagement (the why of learning).

The what of learning is representation, which includes perception, language and symbols, and understanding.

Action & Expression: executive function, communication and expression, and physical action (the how of learning).
