Abstract

Design of inclusive educational contexts can be applied in unusual contexts such as prison, a multi­complexity contextaddressed by teachers whenever they have to design teaching materials and conduct classroom activities. Teaching inprison needs specific reflections on the context and the socio­economic and cultural backgrounds of students, to imaginemore effective practices in accessibility, participation, and success. This is especially necessary for subjects like math­ematics, a potential gatekeeper for future studies or job positions, but also a necessary competence in contemporarysocial and working life.This contribution presents the results of an exploratory study on mathematics education in prison, aimed at reflectingwith teachers on their practices and at introducing mutually agreed, verified, and re­discussed improvements, later trans­lated into design principles for future educational design research. Four design principles are identified and presented.
