Making Your Teaching More Accessible and Inclusive

This workshop invites faculty to consider the various barriers to learning that may exist in their courses and explore practical ways to reduce them. While creating barrier-free learning environments can be complex – especially given constraints such as access friction - our goal with this session will be to encourage faculty to think about how to increase the inclusivity and accessibility of their courses one change at a time. Drawing on frameworks such as Universal Design for Learning (UDL), participants will work collaboratively to consider strategies that can be employed across all stages of a course, from design and content creation to facilitation and assessment.
