Universal Design for Learning: Strategies for Teaching to Students of All Abilities

Despite the fact that students with disabilities are a heterogeneous group of students, many share similar challenges with complex multi-step problem solving, limited persistence when frustrated, and curricula that is not designed for accessibility. Despite these challenges, there is emerging evidence that students with disabilities can find success in K-12 CS instruction if they are provided with the necessary supports.  In this webinar, participants will learn about instructional strategies for supporting students with disabilities in K-12 CS instruction. These strategies will focus on increasing access, engagement, and learning. 

Guest Speaker: Dr. Maya Israel, Associate Professor of Special Education at the University of Illinois
