‘Promoting Inclusive Teacher Education’ is a series of five advocacy guides. The guides discuss challenges and barriers to inclusive education in different areas of teacher education and offer related strategies and solutions for effective advocacy towards more inclusive practices. The series begins with this introductory guide. It provides an overview of inclusive teacher education and of what advocacy means in this context. It also provides an introduction to the topics covered in the four other guides in the series. These are ‘Policy’, ‘Curriculum’, ‘Materials’, and ‘Methodology’.

Advocacy Guide 4: Materials – changing the materials that are used to support teaching and learning within teacher education. Materials refer to the resources (e.g. textbooks) which are used in pre-service teacher education institutions. Teacher education utilizes a wide range of materials, including those used by teacher educators as an aid to teaching, and those used by student teachers as an aid to learning.
