Technology & accessibility:inclusive educational environment
November 23, 2017Content
How can we nudge all educational projects to consider the curricular, methodological, and organizational elements that allow for the participation of all students in a general educational environment? This seminar —through the contributions of experts in the fields of education and technology— will promote the universal design for learning (UDL) as the operating principle for an inclusive classroom, will share personal experiences and specific recommendations in the application of UDL, and will discuss how bleeding-edge assistive technologies, such as LIDAR and automated description of the environment, could improve the independence and mobility of students with disabilities.Program
