Inclusive teaching is a pedagogical approach that aims to create a learning environment where all students feel valued, respected, and engaged. It involves intentionally designing and implementing teaching practices, materials, and activities that accommodate the diverse backgrounds, experiences, and abilities of all students.

Here we feature resources that can help instructors engage in difficult dialogues with students and understand why sense of belonging is important and how to make their students feel welcome.
