SUMMARY:Creating Accessible Teaching and Research Documents in STEM
DESCRIPTION:How can you make your teaching and research documents accessible to neurodiverse individuals and individuals with disabilities? Through this workshop\, participants will learn to recognize features that might make their teaching and research materials inaccessible\, to present content in a variety of formats\, and to use specific tools like LaTeX to improve accessibility of their materials. Special attention will be given to teaching and research materials with complex mathematical characters and equations\, which have historically presented unique challenges to accessibility. By the end of this workshop\, participants will be able to: \n\nUnderstand the diversity of abilities of learners and researchers and identify challenges to accessibility based on the content and format of technical documents\nEvaluate the accessibility level of teaching and research materials and apply tools and programs to increase their accessibility\n\nThis workshop is part of CIRTL’s fall programming on accessibility. \nInstructors\nMarissa Gee\, Cornell University\nAnna Malinovskaya\, Cornell University\nBreanne Kisselstein\, USDA Genetic Improvement for Fruits and Vegetables Lab \nWorkshop Schedule\nThis workshop meets in Zoom on Fridays\, November 17 and December 1 at 1-2:30PM AT / 12-1:30PM ET / 11AM-12:30PM CT / 10-11:30AM MT / 9-10:30AM PT. \nAudience\nThis workshop is designed first and foremost for graduate students\, postdoctoral researchers\, faculty\, and instructional staff in STEM/SBE disciplines\, but generally relevant to anyone looking to learn about document accessibility broadly and LaTeX specifically. \nRegistration & Enrollment\nNo cap.

SUMMARY:Getting Started with Universal Design for Learning
DESCRIPTION:We know the one-size-fits-all approach to learning design is not optimal. But how do we incorporate flexibility into teaching and learning while still maintaining rigorous learning? In this workshop\, participants will learn the three principles that underpin Universal Design for Learning (UDL)\, an evidence-based pedagogical framework that fosters motivated\, resourceful\, and strategic learners. They will have the opportunity to apply these principles to a teaching artifact of their choice\, be it a syllabus\, assignment\, and/or teaching practice. Participants will come away with an expanded understanding of learner variability\, how it can be leveraged as an asset in the classroom\, and how to make learning more accessible for their students. No previous experience with UDL is necessary. By the end of this workshop\, participants will be able to: \n\nIdentify the 3 main principles of Universal Design for Learning\nExplain why each principle is important to consider when designing inclusive learning opportunities\nCritique a proposed learning activity and identify potential barriers to equitable access\nPropose ways of re-designing a learning community to foster equity by following the principles of UDL\n\nThis workshop is part of CIRTL’s fall programming on accessibility. \nInstructors\nKatie Healey\, University of California\, Davis\nAmanda Modell\, Stanford University \nWorkshop Schedule\nThis workshop meets in Zoom on Thursdays\, December 7 and 14 at 2-3:30PM AT / 1-2:30PM ET / 12-1:30PM CT / 11AM-12:30PM MT / 10-11:30AM PT. \nAudience\nThis workshop is designed first and foremost for graduate students\, postdoctoral researchers\, faculty\, and instructional staff in STEM/SBE disciplines\, but generally relevant to anyone looking for an introduction to Universal Design for Learning (UDL) and accessible teaching practices at the college level. \nRegistration & Enrollment\nNo cap.
