Traditional institutional research systems may limit who is counted and how they are counted because of limitations associated with disability classification, self-disclosure of disability status, and accessibility limitations inherent within some data-collection methods. As postsecondary institutions work toward improving access for disabled…

Background: We conducted a rapid scoping review to identify how inclusive research teams use technology during the research process that could support remote collaboration during public health emergencies like the COVID-19 pandemic. Method: We searched three databases and conducted a hand search. Two independent reviewers screened 1498 abstracts…

One in every 10 children has a disability. These 240 million children, like all others, have hopes and dreams. Yet they also face unique challenges and barriers shaped by ableism and stigma. This report documents UNICEF and its partners' disability evidence generation from 2018 to 2022. It underscores the organization's deep-rooted commitment to…

The research is clear: Including students with disabilities in general education classrooms is the most effective way for all students to learn. If you are working toward greater inclusivity in your school or system, this book from educators and inclusion experts Julie Causton, Kate MacLeod, Kristie Pretti-Frontczak, Jenna Mancini Rufo, and Paul…

This qualitative study examined educational professionals' experiences including students with extensive support needs (ESN) in general education settings. Data were collected from 18 education professionals, including 5 special education teachers, 5 paraeducators, 4 administrators, and 4 general education teachers. The researcher used…

Inclusive research with people with learning disabilities often involves audio-recording interviews. However, although barely acknowledged in the literature, participants may not understand that every word recorded will be scrutinised forensically, from which possibly erroneous conclusions may be drawn. This paper describes an alternative method:…

In early childhood education, ensuring that all students, including those with disabilities, can access and engage with learning materials is a pivotal aspect of educational equity and inclusion. Accessible Educational Materials (AEM) and Assistive Technologies (AT) are central to this endeavor, providing essential resources that accommodate…

The European Agency Statistics on Inclusive Education (EASIE) work focuses upon the collection and analysis of longitudinal, comparative national data related to inclusive education systems and learners with officially recognised special educational needs (SEN) among its 31 member countries. In this article, the EASIE work is discussed in relation…

Better data is needed on disability in Global Partnership for Education (GPE) partner countries to understand the extent to which children with disabilities are excluded from education, so that countries can make evidence-based and inclusive education policy and plans, and progress can be monitored globally. As part of its work helping to build…

This paper provides practical guidance for scholars and practitioners looking to develop more rigorous, comprehensive, and inclusive research that could guide proactive efforts to improve access, experiences, and outcomes for college students with disabilities. To do so, we (a) identify critical challenges affecting research and assessment related…

Including students with disabilities requires schoolwide interventions that are implemented with fidelity (adherence). Collection of fidelity data may become problematic when multiple evidence-based treatments exist in one setting. To address concerns around efficiency of data collection, this study hypothesized that the three sampling approaches…

This paper proposes a systematic framework to integrate learning analytics into serious games for people with intellectual disabilities. Serious games for an inclusive learning environment need to be prudently designed with adaptive and measurable competencies to meet the needs of the target users. The recent emergence of learning analytics…

In Australia, a new system of collecting data on school-aged students with disability is in the early phases of implementation. The "nationally consistent collection of data on school-age students with disability" (NCCD) establishes a mandatory data collection process in which teachers categorise and report on individual students' level…

Although the use of data is important for informing inclusive practice, research into Australian early childhood educators' data practice is limited. Types of data collected in early childhood settings and the use of these data were investigated. Surveys completed by 105 early childhood educators across Australia indicated that anecdotal written…

This report reviews the outcomes of Erasmus+ projects promoting inclusion in education, implemented between 2014 and 2020. Starting from an inventory of 120 Erasmus+ projects labelled as 'good practice' in the Erasmus+ projects database, 15 projects were selected for further examination as case studies. The report summarises the main findings of…
