What Is This Session About?

Building upon your existing understanding of technology integration frameworks or a foundational introduction to Universal Design for Learning (UDL), this one-day intensive course will equip you with the practical skills to create truly inclusive and engaging learning experiences. This course goes beyond theoretical understanding, focusing on the application of UDL principles within a technology-rich learning environment. Participants will delve into the core tenets of UDL, exploring how multiple means of representation, engagement, and action/expression can be strategically implemented to address the diverse needs of all learners. We will move beyond simply using technology for its own sake and instead focus on utilising it as a powerful tool to remove barriers to learning.

 

What Does The Session Cover?

This intermediate-level one-day course aims to empower educators to strategically integrate technology with Universal Design for Learning (UDL) principles. Participants will reinforce their understanding of UDL's core tenets and explore practical instructional strategies that offer multiple means of engagement, representation, and action/expression. The course emphasises hands-on application, guiding educators to utilise at least three different digital tools to enact UDL effectively. By the end of the day, participants will be able to design inclusive and learner-centered activities leveraging technology and critically evaluate their designs using an evidence-based rubric, fostering equitable access and participation for all learners. They will emerge with draft blueprints that they can adapt once they leave the course.

 

Who Is It Suitable For?

  • Adult Educators/Facilitators and Instructional Designers: Those actively involved in designing and delivering training programs for adult learners in various settings will gain practical strategies to enhance engagement and cater to diverse learning needs. They will also acquire valuable frameworks and tools to build more inclusive and accessible learning experiences from the outset. 
 
  • Workforce Development Specialists/Learning and Development Leaders: Individuals focused on upskilling and reskilling initiatives within organisations or government agencies will find this program instrumental in designing effective and equitable training for a diverse workforce. Those overseeing and implementing professional development programs within organisations will be equipped to enhance the inclusivity and impact of their offerings through technology-enhanced UDL strategies.
 
  • Education Technology Specialists in Adult Learning: Professionals whose role involves integrating technology into adult education programs will gain deeper insights into leveraging digital tools to support UDL principles and improve learning outcomes.
