    Instructional Technology for Developing Universally Designed Course Materials

    SLATE Conference
    Christopher Dobson Center for Innovative Instruction Harper College

    Objectives for our session


    Define instructional technology

    Relate how concepts of universal design for instruction provides for an inclusive learning environment
    Determine methods for employing instructional technology within course materials to meet universal design principles Recall resources for learning about universal design for instruction and instructional technology

    What is Instructional Technology?


    Instructional technology is "the theory and practice of design, development, utilization, management, and evaluation of processes and resources for learning," according to the Association for Educational Communications and Technology (AECT) Definitions and Terminology Committee.[1]

    What types Instructional Technology do you already employ in the classroom?


    Blackboard Blackboard What

    Learning Management System

    Collaborate (Formally Elluminate Live!)?

    other technologies do you use?

    How do implement and evaluate the technology you use?


    The ASSURE model incorporates Robert Gagne's events of instruction to assure effective use of media in instruction. [2]

    A Analyze learners
    S State standards & objectives S Select strategies, technology, media & materials

    U Utilize technology, media & materials


    R Require learner participation E Evaluate & revise

    Analyze Learners
    What are some ways you analyze your learners?

    Needs Assessment and Learning Styles


    All students have unique learning needs

    ESL students, international students, non-traditional students, students with older computer technologies, students with disabilities, students with a learning style that differs from the instructor, all students

    What is Universal Design?


    The design of products and environments to be usable by all people, to the greatest extent possible, without the need for adaptation or specialized design.
    Center for Universal Design, North Carolina State University

    Universal Design for Instruction

    UDI is the proactive design and use of inclusive instructional strategies that benefit a broad range of learners including students with disabilities. (Scott, McGuire, & Shaw, 2001) [3] Nine Principles based on: - Principles 1-7 adapted from the Center for Universal Design - Principles 8-9 based on comprehensive review of several literature bases including work of Chickering and Gamson (1987)

    Universal Design for Instruction (cont.)


    Principle 1 : Equitable Use Principle 2 : Flexibility in Use Principle 3 : Simple and Intuitive Principle 4 : Perceptible Information Principle 5 : Tolerance for Error

    Principle 6 : Low Physical Effort Principle 7 : Size and Space for Approach and Use

    Principle 8 : A Community of Learners*


    Principle 9 : Instructional Climate*
    (Scott, McGuire, & Shaw, 2001)*

    Methods for Implementing UDI


    Principle of UDI

    Examples of Methods

    Principle 1 : Equitable Use

    writing, posters, presentations

    Principle 2 : Flexibility in Use


    Principle 3 : Simple and Intuitive Principle 4 : Perceptible Information Principle 5 : Tolerance for Error

    concept maps, groups, outlines


    grading rubrics, reminders, outline websites that are accessible, HTML practice exercises, study skills

    Methods for Implementing UDI (cont.)


    Principle of UDI

    Examples of Methods

    Principle 6 : Low Physical Effort

    Screen and document structure

    Principle 7 : Size and Space for Approach and Use


    Principle 8 : A Community of Learners* Principle 9 : Instructional Climate*

    moderately combining text and graphics, visual and media literacy


    study groups, discussion groups, project groups, chat room Statements related to accessibility, diversity, netiquette, direct and timely feedback

    UDI and Instructional Technology


    Tools faculty and staff use to create instructional materials:

    Microsoft Office (Word, PowerPoint, Excel, OneNote) Adobe: Creative Suite, Acrobat, Captivate, eLearning Suite Apple iLife, iWork, Final Cut Studio TechSmiths Camtasia, SnagIT, Jing SoftChalk Lessonbuilder

    Matrix of Tools and Resources based on the Universal Design for Instruction principles eLearning Tools, Free Technology Toolkit for UDL in All Classrooms

    UDE Resources
    Universities and groups best known for their research related to UDL and UDI Center for Applied Special Technology, CAST http://www.cast.org/index.html University of Washington, DO-IT Center http://www.washington.edu/doit/Faculty/Strategies/Universal/ Colorado State University - http://accessproject.colostate.edu/udl/ Center on Postsecondary Education and Disability, University of Connecticut http://www.udi.uconn.edu/ University of Wisconsin Milwaukee - http://access-ed.r2d2.uwm.edu/ Merlot Elixr, Case Stories: Universal Design for Learning

    Review and conclude

    Instructional technology = theory and practice of design, development, utilization, management, and evaluation of processes Universal Design for Instruction provides a more inclusive learning environment by meeting students needs and learning styles

    Methodology should include assess audience, objectives, strategies, materials, utilization, learner participation, evaluation, and revisions
