Universal Design for Learning: Creating inclusive learning and teaching environments | Webinar
Event description
We are delighted to announce the launch of our new UDL Educator Pathway on Pathways Awarua!
UDL is a framework to support educators in meeting the diverse needs of all learners. UDL is about anticipating and removing barriers to learning when planning your teaching, rather than waiting for obstacles to arise.
The new Educator Pathway is designed to introduce you to the UDL framework and its three core principles, and help you get started with putting it into practice.
Join us in this webinar, where Chrissie and Annette will demonstrate the new Pathway and host a Q&A session on UDL.
Please email Annette all your questions on UDL by 26 April: annette.vanlamoen@ako.ac.nz
We’ll do our best to answer them all!
