New Approaches to Teaching: Universal Design Learning
Learn how to use the principles of Universal Design Learning to create more engaging lessons for diverse learners. Unlike other regular teaching methodology courses, this course explores instructional methods which are more accessible and inclusive regardless of the learner’s language proficiency, background knowledge and ability level.
