Keynote: Universal Design Daily: Supporting All Students in the Diverse Classroom
Too often a “one-size-fits- all” approach is used to design lessons, leaving some learners struggling to participate and their teachers scrambling to find alternative supports. In this presentation, Dr. Kluth will illustrate alternatives to this retrofit-style of teaching and learning by discussing the benefits of Universal Design for Learning. Specifically, she will outline and give examples of UDL methods (engagement strategies, action & expression strategies, representation strategies) and emphasize how a UDL model can help teachers reach a wider range of students and include those learners who may previously have been excluded. This Universally-Designed presentation also features “TikTok teaching”, a rock-paper-scissors challenge, and a unique dance party!
