Creating truly equitable education is a challenge. Equity, diversity, and inclusion endeavours are often characterized by a depreciative deficit-thinking and a problem-based view on diversity. In this article, we present the MIXED model (Multi-perspective Inclusive eXchanges for Equity and Diversity), which can support lecturers in establishing an inclusive learning environment by building on different perspectives and talents in the (college) classroom. The model offers both inspiration and practical guidance as it describes a vision, strategies, and examples of learning activities for various classroom settings (online/offline, larger/smaller). We also describe the theoretical framework and the process of development and implementation. The MIXED model, developed at the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, unpacks three phases in classroom dynamics. Feedback from lecturers indicates utilizing the model can lead to a more equitable learning environment. This approach aims to educate future academics and professionals who are capable of building on the different perspectives in diverse settings when resolving complex societal problems.
