This article aims to map the scientific production concerning the inclusion of people with disabilities in Science Education to promote a reflection on the production of this area. Bibliometric analysis is used to help understand what stage of research a particular subject is at. Publications on the topic indexed at the Web of Science Core…

Students with specific learning disabilities (SLD) are taught by general education teachers who may not respond positively to the inclusion of these students in their classrooms. Teachers' self-efficacy is an important construct which is related to teachers' teaching and their willingness to include students with disabilities into their…

It is vital that critical media literacy be integrated in media programs' skills courses. For students to become well-rounded and inclusive media makers, educators need to help students gain critical media literacy skills when producing content.

There is growing interest in how to better prepare K-12 students to work with data. In this article, we assert that these discussions of teaching and learning must attend to the human dimensions of data work. Specifically, we draw from several established lines of research to argue that practices involving the creation and manipulation of data are…

In this essay, I reflect on my experience at the 2015 Society for the Study of Emerging Adulthood (SSEA) Conference to highlight how communication at academic conferences may negatively influence (emotion graft) out-group or minority participants. In this paper, I will discuss the following topics: (1) the acute implicit bias made explicit in Dr.…

Moreover, it is remarkable that Luhmann apparently never linked the inclusion/exclusion concept to his late theory of the education system. The following considerations…

Threatened with ever-increasing levels of surveillance and confinement, this special issue attempts to extend the discussion of "Prison Theatre" to consider 'carcerality' as a pervasive neoliberal strategy.

Many non-LIS disciplines have established easy to borrow practices that libraries can adapt for these purposes. Revision of policies is not enough, however, and inclusive…

The adoption of equitable and inclusive teaching strategies in the undergraduate chemistry classroom is essential if equity gaps are to be minimized. Reducing these gaps will foster a diverse talent pool of future chemists to propel creativity and innovation. To cultivate an equitable and inclusive environment, instructors must engage in ongoing…

This paper examines the perceptions of staff within a university in the UK, of the role of teaching assistants and centrally located disability services. Staff were generally positive about support available although when communication had broken down this led to a lack of trust with centrally organised support. Staff were happy for support staff…
