Description
The UDL Beyond the Basics institute is a two-day virtual workshop designed for educators who understand the UDL core concepts, the UDL design process and are ready to apply the UDL Guidelines to practice. Participants will apply UDL to the design of their own learning experiences and environments (in-person or virtual).
As a participant, you will choose a context to ground your learning—a situation you've encountered that is challenging. Examples of these contexts include authentic professional learning goals, an instructional problem of practice, or a more complex situation that requires further understanding and a potential shift. You will use a variety of design tools to build your reflective practice in designing contextual solutions.
Using the UDL framework and its practical guidelines, participants will:
- Use the UDL Guidelines to design learning experiences
- Use the UDL Guidelines to analyze and redesign learning environments
- Understand the relationship between design and expert learning
- Design for engagement
- Understand the research-base of the UDL Guidelines and Checkpoints
Upon completion of the institute, participants will receive an official CAST certificate.
