Introduction to inclusive teaching practices using Universal Design for Learning (UDL)

The UL campus community is becoming increasingly diverse, and the need for more inclusive practices is clear. Universal Design for Learning (UDL) is an approach to teaching, learning and assessment based around a set of principles for curriculum development that supports educators to proactively design teaching, learning and assessment that include the diversity of learners in higher education. The UDL approach to teaching, learning and assessment seeks to remove barriers to learning for ALL learners rather than addressing individual barriers to learning.
