Crafting Inclusive Activities and Resources
In inclusive classrooms, instructors take the time to plan activities and create resources that will help all students learn. Students come to the classroom with a wide range of experiences, backgrounds, knowledge, and skills, all of which influence how they interact with the course material and each other. With this diversity in mind, inclusive instructors devise a variety of activities so that there are inviting and meaningful learning opportunities for everyone. Then, within each activity, instructors can create scaffolds that help all students accomplish the task while also supporting their different needs and interests. In this pathway, we’ll explore a variety of activities and scaffolds that can help diverse groups of students learn.
