[NEW] Shaping Practices for Diverse Learners
About Course
In this course, learners will be introduced to the Universal Design for Learning (UDL). Learners will gain insights into applying the principles including multiple means of representation, engagement, and expression to design classroom environment setups and learning plans. Communication strategies and different types of feedback will be covered too.
During the course, learners will learn to write an action plan based on UDL and implement it in their teaching practices. Learners will evaluate and reflect on the key factors influencing positive classroom dynamics and engagement among children with different learning abilities.
At the end of the course, learners will be able to:
- use data to analyse and reflect-on-action, teaching & learning practices;
- apply knowledge of diverse learning abilities in children for a developmentally appropriate lesson design and classroom setup;
- apply Universal Design for Learning principles for lesson design, classroom setup and teaching & learning;
- use communication strategies and feedback for interactions to support learning;
