The development of a methodology for assessing inclusive practices in higher education

The aim of this study is to develop and validate a multi-level methodology for assessing inclusive practices in educational institutions, with a focus on enhancing teacher qualifications. The research methodology incorporated both quantitative and qualitative approaches. Statistical methods, including the t-test, were employed to evaluate the significance of changes before and after the program's implementation. Qualitative analysis was conducted using semi-structured interviews with students and teachers. The research results demonstrated a significant improvement in the level of teacher preparedness in the field of inclusive education. Confidence in the use of inclusive methods increased by 30%, while knowledge of adapted educational materials improved by 28%. The availability of infrastructure and technologies also saw a 30% increase. The practical significance of the study lies in the fact that the developed assessment methodology can be applied in educational institutions to improve the effectiveness of inclusive programs.

Abstract

The aim of this study is to develop and validate a multi-level methodology for assessing inclusive practices in educational institutions, with a focus on enhancing teacher qualifications. The research methodology incorporated both quantitative and qualitative approaches. Statistical methods, including the t-test, were employed to evaluate the significance of changes before and after the program's implementation. Qualitative analysis was conducted using semi-structured interviews with students and teachers. The research results demonstrated a significant improvement in the level of teacher preparedness in the field of inclusive education. Confidence in the use of inclusive methods increased by 30%, while knowledge of adapted educational materials improved by 28%. The availability of infrastructure and technologies also saw a 30% increase. The practical significance of the study lies in the fact that the developed assessment methodology can be applied in educational institutions to improve the effectiveness of inclusive programs.
