27th DEAP24 Learning & Teaching Conference,
(in-person), HC		DEAP24 - Inclusive Practice and Equality of Opportunity
Inclusive practice within higher education recognises and values our diversity of students and staff, and aims to create an environment where everyone can participate fully and achieve their potential. As we aim to ensure that all our
students are supported to succeed through improving equality of opportunity and challenging risks to equality of opportunity, it’s important that this work is informed by evidence and evaluated to understand its real impact. We will explore
the principles and practices of inclusive practice, such as designing a relevant and flexible curriculum, using a variety of teaching and assessment methods, creating a supportive and inclusive climate, and providing appropriate support
and adjustments. We will also discuss how inclusive practice can foster a sense of belonging and engagement among students and staff, and how it can support the development of critical thinking, creativity, problem-solving, social and
emotional competencies, and excellence. There will be examples of excellent practice, interactive activities, approaches to design of interventions and evaluation of these interventions, and opportunities for reflection and feedback.
