The concept of ‘Inclusive Pedagogy’ has been developed by Lani Florian and other colleagues. Inclusive Pedagogy is concerned with the inclusion of ‘everybody’ within learning environments. This online course involves exploring the theoretical concepts that underpin Inclusive Pedagogy, namely: social justice; understanding learning and teaching; and active professionalism. Through this process, course participants are encouraged to reflect critically on these core course themes in relation to their professional working context, in order to support small changes to practice.

Inclusive pedagogy is a distinctive concept (Black-Hawkins, Florian & Rouse, 2009; Florian & Rouse, 2009; Florian, 2007; 2009; Florian & Kershner 2009; Florian and Linklater, 2009) which looks for alternative ways to organise teaching and learning by rejecting the deterministic views of ability which dominate much of current educational practice. It identifies three key, interrelated themes: Understanding Learning, Social Justice and Being an Active Professional, each of which is informed by key pedagogic principles, which in combination provide a novel framework for thinking about inclusive practice. Recent research at Aberdeen has explored what this means for the choices that teachers make in the classroom, and is able to provide specific examples of how those principles may be used in practice.
