SUMMARY:Introduction to Universal Design for Learning Across Diverse Teaching Contexts and Modalities
DESCRIPTION:Introduction to Universal Design for Learning Across Diverse Teaching Contexts and Modalities\nDate: Tuesday\, February 10th\, 2026 \nTime: 1:00-2:30pm (AT) / 12:00-1:30pm (ET) / 9:00-13:00am (PT) \nRegistration link \nWorkshop Description: \nUniversal Design for Learning (UDL) offers a meaningful framework for bringing accessibility into our teaching. Whether you are new to UDL or already integrating it into your courses\, this workshop will introduce core concepts\, as well as offer examples and discussion about what both foundational and scaffolded UDL principles can look like in practice. We’ll explore how our UDL approaches can continue to evolve; reflect on our positionality\, consider moments of access friction; dive into how UDL might be applied both asynchronously and synchronously; as well as work towards challenging ableist assumptions that shape teaching and learning.

SUMMARY:Ann Gagné on Accessible Language Use for Educators
DESCRIPTION:Ann Gagné on Accessible Language Use for Educators\nDate: Monday\, March 23rd\, 2026 \nTime: 2:00-3:00pm (AT) / 1:00-2:00pm (ET) / 10:00-11:00am (PT) \nRegistration link \nSoTL Speaker Session Description: \nEach area and discipline has language and terminology understood by practitioners and professionals in that field. There is an assumption in our language use that everyone knows what we mean when we use words\, and that assumption can be exclusionary to English as additional language learners (EAL)\, students with accessibility supports\, and international students. This session will explore how to approach language use in an accessible manner in course design\, assignment design\, and teaching facilitation\, through reference to plain language writing\, accessibility tools\, and readability. It will provide tangible strategies and support knowledge translation in your field to different audiences. \nSoTL Speaker’s Bio: \nDr. Ann Gagné (she/her) is Senior Educational Developer\, Accessibility & Inclusion at Brock University. She has worked in higher education for over 22 years. Her work focuses on the need for accessible pedagogies through awareness of disabled lived experiences. She has facilitated workshops and keynotes on accessible pedagogy\, accessible event design\, accessible social media\, and trauma-aware UDL. In March 2023 she started her own podcast Accessagogy\, which talks about accessibility and pedagogy in short (under 15 minute) episodes.
