This infographic explores the application of Universal Design for Learning (UDL) within the Canvas Learning Management System (LMS) to enhance instructional and assessment strategies. UDL principles emphasise creating flexible learning environments that accommodate the diverse needs of all students by providing multiple means of engagement, representation, and expression. By leveraging the features and tools available in Canvas, educators can implement UDL to design and deliver accessible, inclusive, and effective learning experiences.
The interactive infographic highlights specific strategies for integrating UDL in Canvas, including the use of multimedia resources, structuring content, and varied assessment formats to address different learning preferences and abilities. Through practical examples and best practices, this infographic aims to provide educators with actionable insights on utilising Canvas to support UDL principles, ultimately improving student engagement, learning outcomes, and satisfaction.
