Are you ready for the UDL Guidelines 3.0 update? Nicole Tucker-Smith (Lessoncast CEO) shares four major shifts that educators need to understand and be able to apply. https://lnkd.in/eYrCJcv3 #UDL #Belonging #Equity #Inclusion #UDLRising #EquityInEducation #InclusivePractice

Often school leaders design PL initiatives with a focus on training all staff during a specific phase. While we know that one-and-done does not work, most plans for continuous learning receive less focused attention than they deserve. In our work with school teams at Lessoncast, we have found that initiatives to implement specific approaches like UDL require interactive booster sessions to support teachers in their implementation. We supercharge existing initiatives by carefully designing PL exercises that help teachers understand how their professional practice, context, or approach has developed over time. Click the link below for more information on an intensive, in-person learning opportunity we designed to support teachers implementing UDL Guidelines 3.0. https://lnkd.in/e5RQX47i #UDL #ProfessionalLearning #SuperChargeYourPL #CommunityCare #BraveSpaces #EquityInEducation #SchoolLeadership

We are excited about the upcoming Steelcase conversation about Universal Design for Learning! Join our CEO Nicole Tucker-Smith and other panelists for this free webinar next Tuesday, March 19th! #UDL

Universal Design for Learning (UDL) is an approach that considers what options may be essential for some learners and makes those options available to all. Since 2011, Lessoncast has been helping schools, districts, and institutions effectively implement inclusive practices to improve student learning outcomes. In working with teachers and leaders, we repeatedly hear, “Ah, UDL is a framework that makes inclusive instruction doable.” The brochure linked below highlights Lessoncast's integrated professional learning (PL) services. Contact us at info@lessoncast.com to set up a consultation and learn more about our multifaceted approach to co-design a plan that meets your needs and budget. https://lnkd.in/eRzPr6Nu #equityineducation #inclusiveeducation #UDL #bravespaces #communitycare #professionallearning
