How can you design more inclusive learning experiences and environments? How can you overcome some of the challenges of designing and implementing more inclusive learning?You will find the answers to these questions and much more in this dynamic new text. Asserting that good teaching is inclusive teaching, it demonstrates how university modules and courses can be designed so that each student, regardless of their complex diversity, is valued equally.Drawing from the contributions of over 80 experts and colleagues alongside her own extensive experience, Rossi explores how to embed inclusivity at the point of course design and how to set up, run, assess and evaluate inclusive learning environments and experiences. Following a unique ‘roots to shoots’ journey through an inclusive learning design tree, chapters focus on five dimensions:ValuesContextContentAssessmentEvaluationAn accessible and practical guide for higher education course design, this book is a must read for higher education educators looking to be more inclusive in the way they design and offer learning experiences.For further reading, please visit inclusivelearningdesign.com where you’ll find extended contributor bios, more case studies, key concepts and background, an 'inclusive learning design' checklist and glossary.

Designing Impactful PGCert in Higher Education Courses is the first guide to focus fully on the design, delivery, evaluation and ongoing development of Postgraduate Certificate in Higher Education (PGCert) provision.Combining practical tools with critical reflection, it addresses a longstanding gap in the literature on taught staff development programmes. Written for those leading a PGCert, teaching on one, or developing a course for the first time, this book is a companion for purposeful and values-led PGCert work. It uses ‘PGCert’ as an umbrella term for related taught staff development programmes internationally (e.g., PgCAP, PGCLTHE), many of which align with professional recognition routes such as Advance HE Fellowships.Structured around Rossi’s roots-to-shoots learning design model, the book explores five interconnected stages of PGCert design: Values, Context, Content, Assessment and Evaluation. While grounded in the UK higher education context, it speaks to global audiences and addresses contemporary challenges including inclusion, professional recognition, digital innovation and evidencing impact. Drawing on over two decades of practice as an educational developer and PGCert course leader, Virna Rossi brings together a wide community of colleagues to share evidence, case studies and adaptable tools for use in local contexts. This is a book that those involved in designing, running and evaluating PGCert provision will return to again and again, using its ideas and tools to make a demonstrable difference in practice.
