Webinar: Promoting Equity in Information Literacy Instruction Through Universal Design for Learning

Organised by the Georgia Library Association and Carterette on 29 March 2023 at 14.00 US Eastern time (which is e.g. 19.00 UK time) there is a free webinar: Promoting Equity in Information Literacy Instruction Through Universal Design for Learning.
"To make information literacy instruction accessible to our users, it is important to practice inclusive and equitable pedagogy wherever possible. One effective and manageable way is by incorporating the principles of Universal Design for Learning (UDL) into one-shots, learning objects, asynchronous instruction, embedded instruction, general presentation skills, and more. UDL helps account for visible and invisible disabilities, neurodiversity, preferred learning modalities, and different communication styles to provide equitable access to information in any learning environment. This webinar will outline the principles of UDL and demonstrate how to translate them into tangible options for equitable information literacy instruction in a variety of modalities."
