Course reviews
What have other teachers said about how Inclusive classrooms helped them?
"One example of how I have applied the knowledge and skills gained from this course in my day-to-day teaching is by incorporating differentiated instruction in my lessons. For instance, I now provide multiple ways for students to engage with content—such as using visuals, group discussions, and hands-on activities—so that learners with different strengths and needs can participate fully. This has helped create a more inclusive classroom where all students feel supported and motivated to learn."
Course participant, Nepal
"After attending the Inclusive Classrooms course, I applied what I learned by adapting group activities so that every student has a meaningful role, regardless of ability or confidence level. For example, during a project on environmental topics, I assigned tasks based on students’ strengths — some created posters, others researched online, while others presented ideas to the class — ensuring everyone could contribute and feel valued. This approach helped boost participation, especially among quieter or less confident students."
Course participant, Romania
"Among the various elements to be considered to promote inclusive education truly, I emphasize the importance of understanding that true inclusion is not achieved solely by providing equal opportunities to all students, but rather by offering personalized opportunities based on each student's profile and context."
Course participant, Brazil
