Free online course on inclusive education
What will you learn from this course?
The aim of the course is to create a learning environment that provides an opportunity to learn more about the phenomenon of inclusive education in higher education and to deepen knowledge on the subject. One of the key tools for developing an inclusive education environment is storytelling, which you will follow throughout the course.
In the course, you will discover why it is good to strive for an inclusive educational environment, how to contribute to it, how to open up your own stories and those of the people around you, and how to deal with these stories effectively and empathetically. You will learn practical and concrete tips on how to adapt teaching and communication to learners' changing composition, demands and interests so that it remains relevant and useful.
How does the course work?
The course is free to take in English. It is up to you to decide which part of the course you study, with what depth and when - depending on what you find relevant to your practice. You can go through the chapters of the course all at once, or you can interrupt your studies. Your progress is saved and you can pick up where you left off at any time. Very flexible!
The course is one of the outcomes of the research project Changing Our Story: the Pursuit of Inclusive Education, which is a collaboration between higher education institutions in the Czech Republic, Slovakia and the Netherlands. From the research group Inclusive Education, THUAS is involved in this project, which is funded by a grant from Erasmus+.
