Hi Larissa, I really enjoyed your post it’s such a strong example of how Universal Design for Learning (UDL) and inclusive design can transform science education. I like how you connected theory to microbiology practice, especially your examples showing multiple means of representation and engagement through case studies and visuals. Your table on learner variability…
Hey Kynan, I really enjoyed reading your post! You provided a clear and balanced discussion of UDL and inclusive learning. I especially liked how you highlighted the value of flexibility and learner choice it really captures what inclusion looks like in practice. One thing you could explore further is how these principles translate into specific…
Your post does a great job connecting Universal Design for Learning (UDL) and inclusive learning design to real experiences. I liked how you linked accessibility to connection and care, especially when you mentioned the importance of timely feedback and approachable communication that really stood out to me. I also agree with your point about balancing…
Hi Max, I really enjoyed reading your post! You did an excellent job connecting personal experience with each learning design concept. I liked your section on Design Thinking and the carnival game story it perfectly illustrated creative problem-solving in action. The mountain biking example tied everything together beautifully by showing authentic “learning by doing.” Amazing…
Hi Sasha, I really enjoyed reading your post! You did a great job connecting each concept from Backwards Design to Inquiry Learning in a way that felt cohesive and practical. I especially liked your explanation of Bloom’s Taxonomy and how you showed the difference between surface-level and deeper learning tasks; that table made it super…
Universal Design for Learning (UDL) The Universal Design for Learning (UDL) framework focuses on removing barriers so that every student can access and participate meaningfully in education. Instead of assuming that all learners absorb information in the same way, UDL encourages instructors to design lessons that are flexible and adaptable from the start. As CAST…
Planning and Designing for Meaningful Learning Backward Design reminds me of the times when I start a project with the end result in mind. For instance, in one of my assignments, the outcome was clear: my program had to compress and decompress text files accurately. Knowing that outcome helped me plan my steps more strategically….
Introduction Hi, I’m Dariush Behsudi, a Computer Science undergraduate studying in my third year at the University of Victoria. The fabric of my educational journey has not only been constructed by the direct code of the lectures and the complex algorithm of the assignments but also by the incidental experiences with the debugging of my…
