UDL Community of Practice

 

A Community of Practice (CoP) is a group of individuals who share a common interest, challenge, or area of expertise and come together to learn, collaborate, and grow. In the Universal Design for Learning (UDL) CoP, members explore topics such as implementing UDL principles, inclusive instructional design, multimedia design for learning, and accessible teaching practices.

The UDL CoP is open to instructors, teaching assistants, and staff at Ontario Tech who are interested in inclusive teaching and learning practices.
