Many learners face challenges throughout their educational journey. Universal Design for Learning (UDL) offers a solution to bridge this gap.
UDL goes beyond individual accommodations to create inclusive learning environments, with all learners in mind, offering multiple ways to engage and understand the material.
That’s why we’re joined by disability professionals:
Michelle Traster, Adaptive Technology Specialist, Missouri Western State University
Chynel McCrink, Teacher and ICT Coordinator, St. Peter's Primary School and Nursery
With years of experience in the world of assistive technology (AT) who share their thoughts about how you can prepare for the fall semester, and consider how Universal Design for Learning can create a more successful learning experience for everyone.
During this session, we'll explore:
How educators can leverage UDL principles to create a more engaging and effective learning experience for all learners.
How assistive technologies can further support diverse learning styles within a UDL framework.
The opportunities and challenges UDL presents for both in-person and remote learning environments.
How disability services and faculty can work together to build inclusive classrooms that benefit all students.
