Beyond “one size fits all”: Engaging learners through UDL

In today's diverse and dynamic educational landscape, a “one-size-fits-all” approach to teaching falls short in meeting individual student learning needs. Universal Design for Learning (UDL) provides keys to unlocking the potential of every student, removing barriers to learning and fostering academic success for all, considering a diversity of abilities, backgrounds, and ways of learning.

This webinar will introduce the UDL framework and its principles, enabling you to create adaptable and flexible learning materials, activities and assignments that cater to a diverse student body, without watering down course expectations. We will also discuss inclusive teaching strategies for designing welcoming, safe, open, and engaging learning environments that will benefit all.

Whether you're a professor, instructor, teaching assistant, or support staff, join us on the path to making teaching practices more accessible and universal, with the goal of reducing the need for accommodations and empowering all students on their learning journey, including those with disabilities or different abilities.

A Zoom link will be sent to registered participants the day before the webinar.
