This half-day event will begin with a presentation over lunch to ground participants in a shared set of definitions and approaches surrounding neurodiversity and Universal Design for Learning. The lunch presentations will be followed by three mini-workshops on specific elements of the updated guidelines for UDL as they apply to teaching neurodiverse students. Participants are encouraged to bring their own course materials (e.g., syllabi, assignments, exams) to apply strategies and lessons learned throughout the afternoon.
