In this article, we offer a blueprint that connects learning, humanizing pedagogies, and inclusive assessment to foster equity in higher education. First, we build upon extant literature to infuse sociocultural theories in our reimagination of learning. Second, we articulate how inclusive pedagogical practices bring strong potential to humanize campus learning systems. Third, we share strategies for educators to enact inclusive assessment based upon conceptualizations of learning and inclusive pedagogies. Our hope is for readers to consider inclusive assessment as one tool for iteratively redesigning a powerful learning environment where students are supported, affirmed, valued, and validated as their whole selves.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
