What’s essential for some, can be useful for all

Originally shared on LinkedIn, this publication focuses on ways in which we can use technology, particularly iPad, although resources can be pivot for classrooms with all types of hardware, from Chromebooks to laptops and macbooks, can.

When it comes to accessibility and inclusion, this phrase is in the heart of universal design for learning (UDL).

Around the last weeks, I have been working with schools and sharing resources on practical ways of embeding you in the classroom. Whether they address accessibility for those with visual impediments, support the approach to students with additional needs or offer alternative ways for students to demonstrate understanding, UDL is not a unique solution, it is abhtufule.

In iPad 1: 1 classrooms, the tools are already there. The challenge? Know how to apply the effective issue.

Framed around my more than 13 years of experience that successfully support students and teachers with their use of iPad, I have created an resource: “Accessibility and inclusion in action: ten scenarios explored to promote UDL and inclination in an iPad classroom.”

I have tried to explore real challenges in the classroom and give evidence -based practical solutions so that you can apply them in your classroom immediately.

✅ Fighting with dense reading tickets? Test Visual Abstracts.
✅ The students are missing verbal instructions? Use live subtitles or transcripts.
✅ Students who find writing hard? Dictation tools can close the gap.

Take a look at the resource and let me know what you think. I would love to learn how it approaches accessibility and inclusion in your classroom: the network, after all, is more powerful than the node.

What of these strategies could have the greatest impact on your students? I recognize that these solutions won to work on all the scenarios, so how do you make this work in your environment? Share ideas in comments to help learning work for everyone!
