Abstract

One of the achievements of Peruvian higher education is that it has recognized the need for this type of education to be inclusive. That is, certain vulnerable social sectors also can study for a university degree. Within this group are individuals with special abilities, such as the blind, people with motor problems, among others of this type, although people with economic problems and others who are discriminated against for having suffered prison regimes, because of their gender, race, among others can also be included. To make a reality this idea of inclusion, inclusive teaching programs are needed, which also comprise several programs, from which to choose one. The purpose of this paper is to design a technique that allows decision makers to select among several proposed programs the one that is the most suitable for this type of teaching. To this end, we propose a method to evaluate five dimensions of inclusive education, hybridizing the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) technique with plithogenic sets. The Plithogenic AHP method allows us making the most appropriate decision, with the degree of complexity proper of decision making in education, considering the various components that are part of the training of the university students.
