    What:
    According to CAST: "Universal Design for Learning is a set of principles for curriculum development that give all individuals equal opportunities to learn. UDL provides a blueprint for creating instructional goals, methods, materials, and assessments that work for everyone--not a single, one-size-fits-all solution but rather flexible approaches that can be customized and adjusted for individual needs." Jen will give examples of multiple means of:

        representation; how you show what you are teaching
        expression; how students show what they're learning
        engagement: how you "hook" students.

    She'll talk about lessons that flexibly address a variety of materials, classroom conditions, staff, and students, and the benefits for UDL/technology integration from an AT standpoint.

    When:
    Thursday, November 21, 2013

    What:
    Are you still delivering AT services the way you did two decades ago because "we've always done it that way?" Are you building capacity to reach more staff and students? In this digital age, the tools and strategies for collaboration have changed. Given the emphasis on accommodations for students with disabilities and the move toward UDL to infuse technology for all students, you probably are being asked to do more for more students. This session will examine new ways of maximizing AT support using available digital tools to increase the efficiency of AT consideration and professional learning. This session will prompt you to re-examine how you deliver AT services.

    When:

  • . Accommodations are only truly supportive if the curriculum and instruction that came before the assessment was accessible to these students in the first place. That means high quality teaching that guides students with disabilities to build their knowledge base and readiness skills.
