SUMMARY:CTLE Professional Development Seminar: Removing Barriers to Learning  with Universal Design Principles
DESCRIPTION:Event Recap\nLight lunch will be provided after the seminar.\nParticipant will get 1 PD hour for attending the seminar.\n\nAbstract  \nThis seminar explores the Universal Design for Learning (UDL) framework\, emphasizing flexible teaching and course design to remove learning barriers. Suitable for both seasoned and new instructors\, the speakers will showcase inclusive strategies and their benefits. Beginning with tracing UDL’s evolution from its roots in architecture to its application in education\, and then how to use the framework to design or refresh a course. What is preventing some students from excelling? Are they unmotivated? Do they have access barriers? The seminar will delve into strategies for identifying these barriers\, and how to go about finding more flexible teaching strategies. \nBios \n \nDr. Carolyn Aslan is the senior associate director at Cornell University’s Center for Teaching Innovation.
