The Ministry of Education and CORE Education invite you to a Zoom webinar: Cultural Capability: Introduction to Universal Design for Learning, presented by Lynne Silcock, Rahera Ormsby and Karl Summerfield, CORE Education.
This webinar will help participants to identify learning community strategies and universal supports that cater for diversity.
As part of the cultural capability priority, kaiako are required “to recognise diversity of identities – including culture, gender, sexuality and ability.”
Once you recognise the breadth of diversity, how can you support ākonga with diverse strengths, identities and needs in a busy learning environment? Universal Design for Learning (UDL) is a framework, based on neuroscience, to design learning and environments that cater for everyone from the outset.
These sessions will be relevant to teachers, leaders, principals, tumuaki, kaiako, PLD Leads, PLD facilitators, PLD provider organisations, and regional office Ministry staff.
Please register for this event by clicking the "Register" button above. There are 100 spaces available for this session.
A Zoom invite will be sent to all attendees the day before the webinar, so if you have registered, we encourage you to block out the time in your calendar until the Zoom is sent to you.
