With issues of diversity, disability, and access becoming more prominent in academia, it is important to consider how we teach our students in a way that shows they belong inside of our classrooms. This workshop focuses on the Universal Design for Learning (UDL) framework as a means for making design choices that ensure that all students are able to meet course and developmental goals. We will discuss concepts such as the hidden curriculum, multiple means of engagement, representation, and expression/action, and student autonomy.
This workshop is part of the CITL Summer Course Design Series. You do not have to attend the entire series to attend this workshop, but we do think you'll have the best experience if you attend most or all of the workshops.
This series is designed so that each hour-long session within the series features a 15-20 minute overview of the topic followed by dedicated work time on your course with Lucas and the Grad Affiliates on hand to help. You will actually be making progress on your course during each session!
This workshop counts towards the Graduate Teacher Certificate, the Certificate in Foundations of Teaching, or the Teacher Scholar Certificate.
