The teaching and learning of research methods forms a large component of accredited psychology degrees. This is a significant opportunity for making the overall curriculum inclusive. We present six case studies in the development of inclusive and reflective practices within research methods and projects teaching. The examples include revealing the hidden curriculum of research methods and analysis education (Case Study 1), qualitative methods assessment as an opportunity for personal development (Case Study 2), reflective practice in low-stakes regular testing (Case Study 3), decolonising the research methods curriculum (Case Study 4), inclusive research methods practice in developmental psychology (Case Study 5), and embedding employability for psychology and non-psychology careers (Case Study 6). These case studies demonstrate that research methods education is a crucial space in which important challenges, including accessibility, decolonising the curriculum, addressing awarding gaps, and employability, can be addressed.
