Inclusive Pedagogy for Student Wellbeing

Synopsis

This presentation will outline a signature pedagogy titled ‘Inclusive Pedagogy for Student Wellbeing’. This pedagogy aims to support inclusion, cultural responsiveness, and wellbeing. The pedagogy has been produced through a UNE cross university collaboration between the School of Education, School of Psychology, Oorala Aboriginal Centre, and Student Success. Our signature pedagogy draws on Universal Design for Learning, Culturally Responsive Pedagogy, and Trauma Informed Pedagogy. Four principles for our ‘Inclusive Pedagogy for Student Wellbeing’ have been developed, and will be presented, along with illustrations of practice. At its core, this pedagogy has an aspiration to ensure UNE students experience education in a safe and accessible way.
