Abstract

This chapter reflects on attempts to enact an inclusive, accessible and decolonized curriculum in the area of English language studies in relation to institutional frameworks, namely the Open University’s Inclusive Curriculum Tool (ICT). The discussion focuses on the design and uptake of a language story sharing activity, pointing to key affordances and limitations of online distance learning environments for the (co)creation of inclusive and decolonized learning experiences that can prove useful for educators beyond the context of the Open University (OU).
