How to Reach (Almost) All Learners with Universal Design for Learning
Thursday, August 25, 2022 from 2:00 - 3:00 pm (Eastern Time)
As technology-mediated learning becomes part of the new normal across college and university curricula, it’s important to interact with students in a way that supports their continued learning, shows compassion and flexibility for varied circumstances, and fits within existing time and prep demands.
This webinar shares low-effort “do-them-right-now” design techniques that reduce student anxiety and pressure, reduce your instructor colleagues’ frustrations (and your own), and allow you to focus on engaging student interactions, especially for those living in small, rural, remote, and Indigenous communities.
Hosted by Dr. Thomas J. Tobin, Teaching, Learning & Technology Specialist II, University of Wisconsin-Madison
