Course Description

In this course, you'll explore how even the best-planned classes or professional development activities can falter when the diversity of participants isn't considered. Fixing prepared teaching activities in the face of learner diversity can be time-consuming and complex. Universal Design for Learning (UDL) offers proactive ways to design learning experiences accessible to all from the start.

This course provides an entry-level exploration of UDL, detailing why this model appeals to educators addressing learner diversity and how its principles support designing the learning experience. You'll also learn to autonomously navigate the wealth of resources available.
