Universal Design and Learning Centered Education

This Power Point presentation is packaged with the following goals: 1) understand the concepts of UD and LCE and how they are interrelated, and 2) utilize dynamic course design to integrate both concepts. It was initially developed as a DARC training module. Please note that the ppt file is labled "DRAFT" because some of the graphics do not have EqTDs written yet.

The information presented was concise and informative. The premise of the presentation was clear as it was appropriately addressed throughout the presentation. Most useful was the implementation of the UD practice of providing textual descriptions of the spoken and pictorial information in the notes section of each slide. A voice over may be an additional, more efficient way to convey such information for a variety of users.

It took me several years of struggling with the heavy door to my building, sometimes having to wait until a person stronger came along, to realize that the door was an accessibility problem, not only for me, but for others as well. And I did not notice, until one of my students pointed it out, that the lack of signs that could be read from a distance at my university forced people with mobility impairments to expend a lot of energy unnecessarily, searching for rooms and offices. Although I have encountered this difficulty myself on days when walking was exhausting to me, I interpreted it, automatically, as a problem arising from my illness (as I did with the door), rather than as a problem arising from the built environment having been created for too narrow a range of people and situations.
