PANDA’s Universal Design for Learning Webinar

PANDA’s Universal Design for Learning Webinar

Universal Design for Learning (UDL) is an approach that minimizes barriers and maximizes learning for all students.  Based on scientific insights into how humans learn, UDL can help refine why you teach, what you teach and how you teach.

UDL guides the design of inclusive instruction and accessible materials.  The training includes concepts applicable to virtual or in person instruction.  All registrants will receive a packet of UDL tools and materials to assist teaching and learning.  This course is only offered once per year with a maximum of 30 registrations.  Hurry and register below!

Here are what previous participants have said about the training:

  • “I’ve been given a tremendous toolbox from which I can draw! I’m recommending this training to any and all teachers who care to do better by their students!”
  • “The UDL training was one that I left feeling very rich with ideas. It nudged me forward to make actual changes in my classroom, both physical and with my curriculum.”
  • “I really enjoyed the opportunity to participate in the training and learned a lot from it – that I can use both in my own daily practice and that I can share with my classroom teachers and support staff as we look for ways to ensure that all students feel welcome in our spaces! Thank you.”
