The course was too focused on only one aspect of diversity, that being mental or physical disabilities. The issues of race, gender, sexual orientation, and others were never addressed at all. Ironically, mental and physical disabilities are the aspects of diversity where the administrations already put much of their focus. As an educator, I am just as intersted in finding out how my teaching can be improved to address other matters of diversity.

This was a really nice course covering the main topics of inclusive education. I missed gender and sexuality issues, as it is more dedicated to disabilities and highly able students, as well as some racial, cultural and national topics. However, I can make the connections to further topics. I highly recommend this course to those interested in the topic to get a broad perspective on the subject.

I enjoyed this course. I was a little disappointed at first that it was focused on special education and not a broader range of diversity. However, I do find that many of the strategies and discussions can be universally applied. Plus, as an educator, it is always helpful to learn more about working with students who may have special needs. Thank you!

This course is very educational and informative. I enjoyed doing it and recommend it to all persons that are interested in inclusive education.

super informative ... It is exactly what i was looking for.

I felt this course was an excellent introduction to the concepts that will enhance my teaching for all learners. The speakers were very clear. The activities were great. Particularly the discussion questions. I liked that. I want to note a minor inconvenience with the system (I think this is a Coursera setup issue rather than an issue with the class itself). The issue was that as I was typing in assignments whenever the website would autosaved it deleted the last sentence I had typed. For me I just began doing them in MS-Word to save the hassle, but it might be worth contacting Coursera directly or perhaps warning the learners prior to the assignments. Some folks get rather riled up when their words are lost--even if it is only a few sentences. Apart from that, the content was stellar and I really wish I had the funds to pursue the M-ed advertised at the end of the course!

This course is highly informative and allows one to understand minor events in class, a school environment that educators can easily overlook. For example, why a student isnt responding or coming to class regularly. The course also guides us to think about how to find flexible ways to include the needs of most learners in a way that it doesnt hamper the needs of other students. Furthermore, the course provides deep insights into how differences could be due to social and environmental factors and not just due to different abilities.

This was an extremely useful and relevant introductory course that covered a number of issues related to diversity and inclusion in the context of education. It was engaging and easy to follow. I'm grateful to all the teachers for their time and commitment to creating all the content for this course. Thank you!

Before I took this course, I thought I knew about diversity and inclusion in the school set-up. Then I realized I didn't know anything! This course is advisable for teachers, parents, care-givers and education policy-makers.

Great course with LOTS of resources and opportunities to discuss and interact with other students. Great topics and discussions too. A MUST for teachers worldwide.

Excellent course! Thanks to the teachers! Resources, time of dedication and material provided was really engaging and of an excellent quality.

It was a very interesting and informing course. I gain a lot of insight to new information. Thanks very much.

It would be really helpful if you could include a list of references per week or at the end of the course.

it is an excellent introduction to the concepts of inclusion and its location in educative enviroments
