Universal Design for Learning
We encourage you to think about ways you can make your curricula inclusive and accessible to all students with diverse characteristics (e.g., learning style, culture, socioeconomic status, physical abilities, communication skills, gender, race, etc.).
The educational paradigm of "Universal Design for Learning" (UDL) can provide helpful frameworks, strategies, and tools for developing courses that are engaging, relevant and accessible to an increasingly diverse student body.
