EDITORIAL CONTEXT

Research lens

An editorial framework for examining this subject. Detailed source review and citations remain to be completed.

01

Why the question is complex

University inclusion involves teaching design, assessment, social belonging, services and the transition beyond graduation. Research should account for variation between courses and institutions.

02

What a review should examine

Ask how adjustments are accessed, how student voice shapes policy and which outcomes persist over time.

03

Use the introduction responsibly
