ABOUT THIS IN-PERSON INTENSIVE
In this intensive workshop, we will synthesize two of the best frameworks for meeting the needs of your neurodiverse students: Universal Design for Learning and generative artificial intelligence. We will rapidly gain an understanding of UDL principles, while collaboratively workshopping ways to remove barriers to learning in your classroom in modern, innovative ways. We will address some of the most common challenges, and participants will leave well-equipped to understand how to efficiently and effectively reach every student.
Participants will:
- Identify and explore barriers to learning in their current instructional practice
- Articulate how learning barriers can be addressed using the UDL framework
- Access and apply at least 3 AI tools that support a neurodiverse student population
- Create a classroom resource using AI that reflects UDL-aligned design
