A Resource for Instructors of All Levels, Backgrounds, and Teaching Contexts

Short Description:
Addressing Evolving Needs with Universal Design for Learning (UDL) is a resource that will guide instructors of all levels, backgrounds, and teaching contexts to reflect on the evolving needs of students, and to implement UDL principles to create more supportive, inclusive, and accessible learning environments for all. In addition to introducing key UDL concepts, this resource includes practical applications, tools, and discussion/reflection prompts for instructors of all levels. This resource can be used individually or in group contexts.

Long Description:
Addressing Evolving Needs with Universal Design for Learning is a resource that was created following the success of a cohort-based online practicum that was offered to faculty, instructors, and staff at Northwestern University. This resource is designed for instructors of all levels, backgrounds, and teaching contexts to reflect on the evolving needs of students and instructors, with an emphasis on mental health. Following the events of the past couple of years, explore how elements of course design can have varying impacts on students, and learn to implement Universal Design for Learning (UDL) principles to create more supportive, inclusive, and accessible learning environments for all.

This resource draws on expertise and experience from around the Northwestern University to explore practical ways to implement UDL solutions in syllabi, LMS pages, course materials, assignments and assessments, and learning experiences.

Advocating for my AEM Workbook
Conditional Remix & Share Permitted
CC BY-NC-SA
Rating
0.0 stars

Advocating For My Accessible Educational Materials (AEM) is a workbook designed for students to use as they begin to learn to advocate for the accommodations and accessibility features they need in their educational programs. It applies common self-advocacy principles to the needs of students who use AEM in their daily educational programs. Students and their support teams will find this guide useful when an assessment has been completed to establish the need for accessible educational materials, technology, and assistive technology. In creating this workbook, the authors have assumed that the student is already using their AEM in functional ways in their educational environments. Because students can start building self-advocacy skills as soon as they begin to use AEM, individual sections of the workbook may be useful as soon as students begin to learn to use AEM.

Assistive Technology in the Schools:  AT Consideration
Unrestricted Use

Rating
0.0 stars

 Assistive technology (AT) can be a powerful tool to support students with disabilities.  The consideration of assistive technology for all students with an IEP is a requirement.   How can this be done with fidelity and who participates in the decision-making process?  These modules will provide educators and parents with resources on how to consider assistive technology.

Assistive Technology in the Schools:  Assistive Technology Assessment
Conditional Remix & Share Permitted
CC BY-NC-SA
Rating
0.0 stars

In this module, we will explore how Individual Education Plan (IEP) teams can assess if assistive technology is required to reduce or remove learning barriers for students with a disability.  In the past, IEP teams have looked to specialists as experts to conduct an assistive technology assessment for their students. However, the IEP team is the best expert on their student. It is best practice for the IEP to conduct an AT assessment on their students, with each team member contributing in the area of the assessment that aligns with their expertise.  In this module, we will share the steps necessary for an assistive technology assessment, as well as resources and tools that will help the IEP team make data-informed decisions.  Assessment ideas for common types of assistive technology tools will be discussed, such as tools for reading, writing, and math.  In addition, resources will be shared for AT assessments that involve AT for vision, hearing, motor, and communication.  We will also share WA State support agencies who exist to guide IEP teams during the AT assessment process.
