Inclusive Design in Higher Education: From Individual Differences to Institutional Design

This NEXUS seminar explores how inequality in higher education can arise from the design of educational systems built around narrow cognitive norms rather than from individual differences. The seminar presents a conceptual framework for understanding neurodiversity as natural variation and examines how teaching, assessment and digital systems can unintentionally create exclusion. The session includes a presentation, a panel discussion with invited guests from academia, industry and the student community, and an open discussion with the audience.

The seminar is aimed at faculty, researchers and students interested in inequality, digitalisation and higher education.

Panelists:

Nelson Diotto, Principal architect at Google, at Stockholm Office
Mexhid Ferati, Associate Professor, department of Informatics at Linnaeus University.
Paul Pierce, Senior lecturer, Department of Informatics, LUSEM
Sofia Berggren, student at Malmö University

Presenter: Nam Aghaee, Senior lecturer, Department of Informatics, LUSEM
