Pedagogical approaches in inclusive research

This chapter explores pedagogical approaches to learning about research methods in inclusive research, which is conducted with people with the label of intellectual disability rather than on them. The authors belong to two inclusive research groups that have conducted a range of projects. They present a review of the inclusive research literature and the reflections of researchers with the label of intellectual disability. Through the literature review they identify that three pedagogical approaches (collaborative approach, learning by doing, and dialogical approach), together with the universal design for learning framework, underlie learning in inclusive research. Findings from the literature review correspond with the themes identified through the reflection process: 1) we get stuff done alongside learning; 2) group work also enables more ideas to come up; and 3) images help to show your point of view to others. They discuss how to further investigate pedagogy in inclusive research.
