The Power of Universal Design for Learning: Achieving Equity in the Classroom

*Times listed are in EST

Universal Design for Learning is a tool for creating more access and equity in the classroom space. Roots ConnectED believes UDL is an essential component of the Anti-Bias Framework and critical to engaging students to think about representation, critical literacy and social action in the curriculum. To best understand UDL, one must see it in practice and consider the planning and implementation of this approach in curriculum and classroom design. In this workshop, participants will see examples from the field in planning and curriculum design that is built off of a deep understanding of the UDL framework. Participants will see examples of what UDL based instruction looks like in classrooms and explore concrete practices that support it. Participants will leave having a deeper understanding of UDL and having thought about the implications of this work for their own classrooms. *This workshop is for educators and school leaders who already have an understanding of the framework of UDL.

Facilitators: Chanel Hill, Maggie Clegg
