Universal Design for Learning: Adding to the Faculty Toolkit

An interactive keynote will introduce the concept of UDL as a pedagogical approach to supporting students and their diverse learning abilities. You will learn about the transition of UDL from brain-based research to its practical application in college classrooms. Objectives for the keynote include: 

• Understanding the importance of access for all
• Acknowledging and appreciating the diversity of learners in our classroom
• Thinking through our legal obligations as educators
• Learning about the UDL framework in detail
• Celebrating what faculty are already doing
• Sharing best practices for UDL implementation

Following the keynote will be a hands-on workshop for faculty seeking to make a UDL change immediately to their course, while also identifying longer-term UDL strategies designed.
