The Centre for Faculty Development is hosting a workshop on Universal Design for Learning (UDL).
In this workshop, you will learn the fundamentals of UDL for Higher Education and explore a set of effective practices to reduce barriers to learning that you can adapt to your instructional approach. Workshop participants will enjoy an interactive, facilitated discussion of UDL principles and checkpoints, as well as opportunities for the implementation of specific UDL practices in their teaching and other work, in order to design more supportive, inclusive, and accessible learning environments for all. Join us to explore and deepen your knowledge of UDL and develop a strong understanding of how it can be applied across various learning environments and modalities (in-person and online). Collectively, we will generate ideas and strategies for increasing engagement and incorporating flexibility by focusing on the learning environment, developing essential self-regulation and executive function skills, and integrating rigour, choice, and relevance into learning.
