2023 OER Production Series: UDL and Open Educational Resources (May 31)

This event is a part of the OER Production Series.

This webinar is part two of our exploration of accessibility and Universal Design for Learning (UDL) in open educational resources (OER). In this session we build on what we know about technical accessibility to explore how to go beyond minimum accessibility requirements. We dig into concepts like the social model of disability and how UDL can be applied in the design of OER. We explore multimodality as well as the benefits, challenges, and considerations of digital vs. print formats. The session will include concrete examples and opportunities to apply learning.
