Our plan is to mimic the structure that the OSD used at Senate. We’re going to have a facilitator give a brief 10 minute introduction about what UDL is and then break our audience (estimated 20 people) into three groups that will go to three different stations with different speakers. We’d like to have 1 TA, 1 professor, and 1 student speak about their experience with UDL in engineering and why it’s especially valuable in our field. We’re planning on each person giving a 10-15 minute presentation, and they’d be giving it three times to each of the groups. | Our plan is to mimic the structure that the OSD used at Senate.
