Presentation Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to examine how inclusive education practices are perceived by college students and how these actions can potentially benefit all students. While researching, many topics are examined to narrow the focus on which factors benefit students' awareness, comprehension and overall campus climate and success in the classroom. Some of the key variables investigated are teaching modality since COVID, disabilities in the classroom, and demographics of college students including gender, age, and socioeconomics. While the research was not limited to these topics the categories mentioned are critical aspects to the impact of the classroom environment. COVID's impact alone has been significant with, "around 89.9% of students in a traditional university suffered from abnormal anxiety during the strict confinement process" (Parte & Herrador-Alcaide, 2021, p. 3). It is important to understand all aspects the pandemic has had on students, whether mental health or academically, to narrow down the path in which inclusive education can benefit most. Collecting this data provides insight for professors, to then adapt their material to accommodate students under all circumstances.

A study of student perceptions of inclusive teaching in a higher education setting

Room 3 (BRTH 114)

The purpose of this paper is to examine how inclusive education practices are perceived by college students and how these actions can potentially benefit all students. While researching, many topics are examined to narrow the focus on which factors benefit students' awareness, comprehension and overall campus climate and success in the classroom. Some of the key variables investigated are teaching modality since COVID, disabilities in the classroom, and demographics of college students including gender, age, and socioeconomics. While the research was not limited to these topics the categories mentioned are critical aspects to the impact of the classroom environment. COVID's impact alone has been significant with, "around 89.9% of students in a traditional university suffered from abnormal anxiety during the strict confinement process" (Parte & Herrador-Alcaide, 2021, p. 3). It is important to understand all aspects the pandemic has had on students, whether mental health or academically, to narrow down the path in which inclusive education can benefit most. Collecting this data provides insight for professors, to then adapt their material to accommodate students under all circumstances.
