Inclusive Education at Deakin

This site contains practical, easy-to-find information brought together in an inclusive teaching toolkit. See the Everyday Accessibility Basics page for helpful quick tips on ensuring that your digital learning materials are accessible and usable for all students.

Support provides an overview of Deakin’s many services that will assist you in your teaching, and the comprehensive Glossary will explain any term, concept or service that is unfamiliar to you.

Deakin's acknowledgement of country. We acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of the unceded lands, skies and waterways on which Deakin students and teachers come together. As we learn and teach through virtually and physically constructed places across time, we pay our deep respects to the Ancestors and Elders of Wadawurrung Country, Eastern Maar Country and Wurundjeri Country, as well as the traditional custodians of all the lands on which you may be learning and teaching, where education has taken place for many thousands of years.
