Overview
The COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated inequities and inequalities in accessing educational opportunities among different social groups. Consequently, the idea of inclusivity in education has become an abstract phenomenon that widens the digital divide and creates social injustice. This calls for an immediate coordinated response from all stakeholders of education and government to ensure that no one will be left behind as we navigate the so-called new normal. Without an appropriate intervention and sound policy guidance, negative repercussions may be so widespread that they will remain a problem in the education sector far into the future. Socioeconomic Inclusion During an Era of Online Education aims to bring together the school-wide pedagogies, practices, and policies that have been implemented or will be proposed to ensure inclusive education in online learning environments. Best practices and innovative approaches from various educational institutions serve as models to ensure everyone has access to a quality online education. Covering topics such as academic policies, educational technology, and curriculum development, this reference work is ideal for academicians, practitioners, researchers, scholars, instructors, and students seeking to adjust and adapt with teaching and learning online not only during a pandemic (i.e., emergency remote education) but also during ""normal times.
