Digitale Lehre ist längst etabliert, doch nicht alle profitieren gleichermaßen. Universal Design for Learning (UDL) bietet einen strukturierten Ansatz, um Lehrangebote barrierefrei und motivierend zu gestalten und dadurch mehr Studierende von Anfang an einzubinden.
Are Universities Failing the Accommodations Test?
As instructors struggle to meet the complex needs of students, schools are leaving both to fend for themselves

@RebeccaEE just presented our paper about how we applied #EntrepreneurialMindset (EM), #HumanCenteredDesign (#HCD), and #UniversalDesignforLearning (#UDL) along with #inclusiveTeaching resources to improve a Bioinstrumentation #Laboratory course at #ASEEAnnual.

I'd love to hear what you think about my new book chapter: A Visual Workflow for Cataloging
https://surface.syr.edu/istpub/201/
It's about the experimental DressDiscover tool I've been working on with Minor Gordon for #catalogers to choose from a grid of images that represent possible vocabulary terms for stylistic features of #materialculture, and how this relates to #UniversalDesignForLearning #UDL.
Do you think this alternative approach could help make the #cataloging process more inclusive?
Our digital collections team took on the challenge to improve the tools and processes of cataloging. We began to explore how we could build features that helped students into a cataloging worksheet tool, under development at DressDiscover.org. After our initial development of the tool, we looked back and realized just how much Universal Design for Learning (UDL) had influenced our design, although we had not consciously intended that from the start. Our assessment of the project through a UDL lens was at first extremely affirming, helping us to note many ways that our work already supported all three of UDL’s principles of multiple means of engagement, representation, and action and expression. Next, it helped us prioritize the implementation of certain improvements we already had in mind and to add further ideas for future development. Looking at the project from the perspective of UDL helped us to shift from seeing poor quality in catalog records as a deficit on the part of the cataloger to a lack of supportive functionality in cataloging systems and processes. With a UDL approach to the design of cataloging interfaces and processes, we can provide accommodations to catalogers who have formally disclosed disabilities as well as make the cataloging process more comfortable and productive for all, including those who may have invisible, undisclosed, or temporary disabilities, those who are new to the process, and those who have been doing it for years.
This study investigates the effect of offering multiple means of representing content, one aspect of Universal Design for Learning (UDL). Students across the full range of the dis/ability spectrum all too often struggle to achieve course success. UDL-based course design promises to help students with disabilities (whether disclosed or not) as well as help all students, but research is needed to verify UDL’s specific benefits for student learning outcomes. This study aims to better understand the efficacy of representing course content using multiple means, which is one aspect of UDL pertaining to perception. Data were gathered from over 50 online courses in 14 subjects across the undergraduate curriculum taught with an adaptive learning system at a women’s institution. A panel data analysis with almost 200,000 cases of student learning activities investigated the effect of representing content in multiple ways (i.e., text, video, audio, interactive, or mixed content presentation format). When students used multiple modalities, a positive effect was found on student learning measures of knowledge gained within the adaptive system. The results have implications for future UDL-related research, as well as faculty development and curricular design.

91% of educators believed "changes to #academic practice developed in response to the #Covid19 pandemic will result in a more #accessible educational experience for #students with #disabilities... aligned with
a #UniversalDesignforLearning (#UDL) approach" (#AHEAD report on Students with Disabilities Engaged with Support Services 2020/21).
So why has #Ireland swiftly reversed everything teachers learned and achieved in the #pandemic?!
