Taking place October 21 through November 4, 2024, this online workshop provides an in-depth introduction to Universal Design for Learning (UDL) and to the intersection of UDL and Open Educational Practices (OEP), which include OER and Open Pedagogy.

Participants will review the principles of UDL and explore how OEP can help reduce accessibility barriers for all learners, including those with disabilities. Participants will also learn about best accessibility practices in online courses, including identifying and fixing common accessibility issues. For the workshop project, participants will complete an inventory of one of their courses from a UDL perspective and create a plan for implementing UDL principles and open practices.

Upon successful completion of the workshop, eligible faculty participants will be paid for 7 Non-Teaching Adjunct hours at their contractual NTA rate. Staff are welcome to participate but are not eligible for compensation.
