- Universal Design for Learning (UDL) is an approach to course design and delivery that aims to maximize learning outcomes by fostering accessibility and inclusivity in the learning space. In practice, UDL means that all course participants are appropriately challenged by the learning materials regardless of their barriers to engagement, and it should result in a greater number of expert learners by the end of the course. Some of the principles of UDL were implemented in “Tree and Stand-Level Measurements” (FRST 239), a course which involves extensive mathematics and physical hands-on learning. Over the past year, two representatives from Forestry (Lee Salmon and Frederick Qi) participated in the UBC UDL Fellows Program to enhance this course. In this seminar, learn more about UDL’s implementation in FRST 239, with an emphasis on what barriers to learning were addressed, the solutions deployed, whether these solutions were successful in developing expert learners, and what could be incorporated into other courses within the Faculty of Forestry.
