Introduction: Inclusive language competence is a crucial resource in contemporary education, especially in personalized learning, facilitating an environment of trust and promoting diversity. Methodology. A quantitative methodology was used based on a self-perception questionnaire with Likert scales, administered online to second-year students of various degrees in Education during the 2023-2024 academic year. Results: The data showed a clear satisfaction among students regarding the development of inclusion through reading comprehension, with an average evaluation of 4.27 (SD = 1.21). These results indicate a positive development of inclusive language competence in university classrooms. Discussion: The Thinking-Based Learning (TBL) approach and didactic challenges encourage cooperation and problem solving, developing cognitive, social and inclusive skills. The application of these methods has improved reading comprehension and the inclusive environment, highlighting the need for ongoing training for students and teachers. Conclusion: Inclusion in the classroom, facilitated by TBL and didactic challenges, improves the quality of learning and increases student motivation, positively impacting their academic and socio-emotional development. This study underlines the importance of integrating inclusive strategies for quality education.
