Building an Inclusive Classroom
This video explores macro and micro structures that can be built into school and classroom spaces to foster a greater inclusive culture in schools. Topics like creating a common definition of inclusion, language usage and taking a strengths-based approach will all be addressed. Educators will leave with concrete action steps that they can begin implementing in their schools.
Building Bridges to Equity in Inclusive Science Education with UDL
This video offers a universally designed science education framework supporting a disability studies informed approach to using Universal Design for Learning (UDL) and the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) in inclusive science classrooms. A vignette is used to discuss creating an inclusive community of science learners, planning for big ideas over time, engaging students in sensemaking through model-based inquiry, and engaging in cooperative learning and science talk.
