Subclaims¶

q2 i? Across the reviewed literature, inclusive learning principles, particularly for students with SENs, are limited and inconsistently integrated, with personalization, accessibility, or affective features isolated rather than systematically integrated. → Sudarshan VK 2025

Evidence¶

Sudarshan VK 2025¶

Sudarshan VK, Sisodia A, Ramachandra RA, Sia B, Chong Leng Leng J. (2025). Agentic AI Ecosystems in Higher Education: A Perspective on AI Agents to Emerging Inclusive, Agentic Multi-Agent AI Framework for Learning, Teaching and Institutional Intelligence. https://arxiv.org/abs/2605.14266 doi:10.48550/arxiv.2605.14266

q2 · i? · review · r1

Theme 3 of the article's thematic analysis of studies in Tables 2 and 3. The review reports that most AI systems focus on general learning outcomes without explicitly addressing cognitive diversity, sensory accessibility, or emotional and mental well-being; notable exceptions remain "limited in scope and scale".

"Even in advanced agentic systems, inclusion is typically implicit rather than explicitly designed, indicating a gap between technological capability and pedagogical inclusivity."
