Universal Design for Learning (UDL) as a Therapy Tool

Role of Related Services in Promoting Access in Education

In this course, Peggy will explore Universal Design for Learning (UDL) as a comprehensive framework for optimizing teaching and learning via multiple means of engagement, representation, action, and expression for diverse student abilities. Additionally, you will delve into its use as a therapy tool that will help you become an effective school-based related service practitioner.

 

You will gain insights into the different brain networks and levels of learning that can be impacted by UDL, and how they relate to OT expertise. Peggy will share practical OT strategies that can be seamlessly integrated into the classroom to help students with and without disabilities become motivated, resourceful, and goal-directed learners. To further enhance understanding, Peggy will present two case studies illustrating the 3 Steps of applying UDL guidelines for providing services within Tier 1 of the Multi-Tiered System of Supports (MTSS); and the 4 Steps of applying UDL guidelines for embedding interventions in accordance with a student’s Individualized Education Program (IEP).

 

Leave the course with valuable UDL strategies and resources, ready to elevate your school-based practice to new heights! Closed Captioned in English.
