It’s Time to be Inclusive and Include UDL

Have you heard colleagues talk about University Design for Learning (UDL) and wonder what it is? Are you charged with developing training in your organization or institution related to UDL? Perhaps you are interested in developing online courses that take into account UDL. Knowing this is a global, if not universal, concern, Elizabeth (Betsy) Dalton and Susie Gronseth edited a book with 47 chapters and nearly 90 contributors, Universal Access Through Inclusive Instructional Design: International Perspectives on UDL, that was published by Routledge in 2020. In the show, they will be joined by chapter authors from South Africa and Chile who will share their perspectives on how universally designed programs and instruction is happening in their parts of the world, some strategies and tools that they have found helpful in their UDL journey, and the persisting issues they continue to face as they work to achieve the goal of inclusive education. Without a doubt, Episode #59 should be a highly enjoyable and informative session. Yes, it is time Silver Lining for Learning included an episode on UDL.
