Abstract
This chapter introduces the Inclusion by Design (IbD) framework and sets the stage for a transformative approach to inclusive backward curriculum planning. IbD moves away from the traditional one-size-fits-all approach to teaching, and instead promotes a proactive, inclusive approach to teaching and learning that considers student diversity from the very outset of the planning process. This chapter outlines the research base supporting IbD and calls for a rethinking of planning methods to ensure that all students are provided the opportunity to succeed, regardless of the diversity they bring to the classroom.
