The concept of diversity and inclusion has continued to gain attention and attraction and is a challenging topic in the times of COVID-19. In this pandemic period, all of our systems are totally disturbed including the educational system and all sectors of life get stressed, including our principles and values. Remote teaching and learning process has become a 'new normal' for all of our educators and learners and it will be continued for an undetermined period of time. This new normal online learning poses adaptive and transformative challenges to the educators and the learners. Inclusive education in this lockdown, quarantine period is a huge challenge. This paper explains about barriers of inclusion, like unconscious bias, and the pedagogical methods to practice for successful inclusive education online in times of COVID-19 and in the future.
