Description

What tools and strategies can you use to expand representation and ensure equitable access to learning? Artificial Intelligence (AI) can be integrated into the Universal Design for Learning (UDL) framework to offer students multiple means of representation, making content more accessible. Join Dr. Samantha Fecich for this hands-on, interactive workshop as we discover how AI can be used to present content in formats that cater to diverse learning needs and preferences, including visual aids, auditory tools, and interactive simulations. Get ready to create inclusive educational experiences where all students can comprehend and engage with material! Samantha's expertise in research-based instructional practices will equip you with the knowledge and skills you need to design lessons that incorporate AI tools and UDL strategies, ensuring that your students can thrive in the classroom.
