Striving for Inclusive Teaching in The Health Professions Through Universal Design for Learning

Universal Design for Learning (UDL) is a set of principles that supports providing all individuals with equal learning opportunities. It encourages instructors to undertake the design process by expecting the curriculum to be accessed by diverse learners with varying abilities and skills.  During this interactive workshop, participants will learn about the UDL framework and discuss practical strategies for designing inclusive courses in the health professions education courses. 

After this workshop participants will be able to:

• discuss the evidence of the need for Universal Design for Learning (UDL)
• describe the tenets of UDL
• apply UDL strategies in their own courses
