Nothing about them without them: Authentically engaging students in UDL growthFrederic Fovet
Presentation at the 1st International Universal Design for Learning Symposium Learning Together.
Maynooth University, June 8th, 2023
There has been a growing interest for Universal Design for Learning (UDL) as a framework for inclusion in both the K-12 and post-secondary sectors over the last decade, and this momentum has been noticeable globally. The body of literature which evidences the pedagogical benefits of UDL implementation for the inclusion of diverse learners is now broad and diversified. There is also growing interest in examining UDL implementation from a leadership and administrative perspective, examining it as a management of change process.
Throughout this growth in scholarship and field initiatives, the concepts of student voice and student advocacy have frequently been used and showcased. The literature regarding the learner role in the process of UDL implementation is, however, still limited. Placing learners in the driving seat when it comes to UDL adoption is therefore purely conceptual and abstract at this stage. It will be challenging to genuinely scale-up UDL as a framework, in both the K-12 sector and the post-secondary landscape, until students have considered with care and offered an active leadership role. Students’ perception of UDL and its objectives are key in the success of initiatives that seek to integrate it across organizations.
This fully interactive session will examine the various facets of the notion of learner involvement in the process of UDL adoption. First, the session will consider the way UDL must be explicitly discussed with learners within the class, while UDL initiatives are attempted. Failure to explain this process to students, and to actively engage them in it, significantly limits the scope of such efforts. The second part of the session will consider learner voice beyond the class itself, and will discuss ways to involve students as co-advocates for UDL growth, across institutions. This is a rich and complex process of critical empowerment which has unfortunately been so far rushed or ignored. The third part of the session will consider how UDL professional development should be addressed not just to educators but to student groups and student representatives. This section of the presentation will explore how the UDL principles must bee woven into such resources and PD for students and student groups, and how they must inform the design of such initiatives.

student success, engages students, and retains students. This requires that you establish a strong
teaching presence within the course, and that you create structures for students to form a community.
In this session, you will learn strategies to make your online course more personal and techniques to
build faculty and student presence in your online course.
Diving Deep: Growing the Field of Civic Engagement Practitioner-ScholarsIowa Campus Compact
This session will be an engaging conversation for current and future civic engagement practitioners, practitioner-scholars, and those who support their work. Attendees will be among the first to review and utilize a new publication resource guiding professional development and career advancement for professionals. Attendees will engage in a conversation with a panel about this publication. The discussion will focus on a framework for understanding the competencies needed in the role of community service-learning professional. The session will review four categories, as outlined in the publication: Organizational Manager, Institutional Strategic Leader, Field Contributor, and Community Innovator. In the first half of the session, a panel of practitioners who helped to develop the framework and publication will reflect on their experiences and engage attendees in a discussion of challenges and lessons learned. The second half of the session will allow attendees to utilize this framework in order to think about and plan for their own professional development and the position of their work in the institution and community. Facilitators will lead a process of personal inventory and allow time for discussion and planning of development opportunities for field and career advancement.

Integrating SAIL into Your College/Program/Division - May 1, 2018 "Learning E...NortheasternSAIL
SAIL engagement across the University community can amplify an individual’s learning in ways that benefit their careers, their lifestyle, and their contributions to society. As educators and leaders of colleges/programs/divisions, SAIL enables us to create impact within and beyond disciplines, and to enable experiential learning in new ways. This session will set the stage for you, as a leader in your college/program/division, to collaborate with colleagues to devise strategies for incorporating SAIL into your processes and procedures in ways that will create a seamless experience for learners and benefit you, your programs, and your students. We will share tested models of SAIL integration, discuss common implementation strategies that bring success, and provide space for creative ideas in order to identify your next steps for broader adoption of SAIL in your community.
SAIL Opening Session - May 1, 2018 "Learning Everywhere" ConferenceNortheasternSAIL
SAIL is truly a product of an integrated community of educators and learners coming together with a vision for something different. Transcending boundaries, acknowledging learning in all of the different places where it is experienced, and empowering our learners to think holistically and self-direct their learning have been our guiding principles. This opening session will take you on the journey of where SAIL has come from and lay the groundwork for how, as a community, we will shape where it goes next.
Cross-Functional Creativity Lab - May 1, 2018 "Learning Everywhere" ConferenceNortheasternSAIL

The session will consist of three rounds of collaborative ideation, after which participants will have time to circle back and focus on ideas that had real traction for them, so they can begin planning specifics and next steps. Work will be captured in a live Google doc, so try to bring a laptop or tablet!
SAIL at Work: Creating a SAIL-Informed Environment at Northeastern - May 1, 2...NortheasternSAIL
With SAIL, Northeastern is taking significant steps towards becoming a global, networked university system. SAIL’s vision of being a truly integrated learning ecosystem where everyone is a learner and everyone is an educator is challenging the university to think differently about acquiring and sharing knowledge. The question, of course, is “how?” – how do we embed the concept of SAIL in our day-to-day lives? How does SAIL inform how we work, how we learn, how we interact? How do we measure success? During this session, we will partner together to design different models that might provide ways to create a SAIL-informed environment in which everyone is a lifelong learner and educator.

Supporting Learners with a Collaborative Network of Educators - May 1, 2018 "...NortheasternSAIL
A key component of the Northeastern vision is a cohesive ecosystem that supports a wide range of learners with diverse needs throughout their journey. In this session, cross-functional, multi-disciplinary teams of educators will leverage the SAIL framework to design creative responses to persona-based scenarios. Through this work, participants will generate knowledge that can be adapted by colleagues throughout the University.
Ideating for Life Design - May 1, 2018 "Learning Everywhere" ConferenceNortheasternSAIL
The vision of the SAIL ecosystem is an educational environment that prepares students for a world in which they will likely reinvent themselves professionally multiple times, requiring knowledge as yet unimagined for roles that do not yet exist, Thriving in such an environment requires resilience, flexibility, and the set of design thinking mindsets defined by Bill Burnett and Dave Evans in Designing Your Life. In the design thinking process, “ideating” means generating multiple possibilities to solve a problem, because, as Burnett and Evans say, “You choose better when you have lot of good ideas to choose from.” In this workshop, you will experience ideation techniques to generate visions for professional roles based on what engages and energizes you.

Transparent Opportunity Design - May 1, 2018 "Learning Everywhere" ConferenceNortheasternSAIL
As educators, we often expect students to practice a wide range of skills during a given learning opportunity, and we understand those specific skills as fundamental to their development of expertise in a given domain. However, students may not recognize the need to apply some skills we consider necessary for success, may apply those skills without noticing that they have done so, or may fail to appreciate how important they are to expertise in the domain. In the process of being more transparent about which skills we want students to practice, how, and why, we are often able to refine our learning opportunity to make it more effective and meaningful. This session will provide a forum for educators to consider research on the value of transparency for supporting learning, revisit an existing learning opportunity in the context of the SAIL dimensions and skills, and help one another become more transparent about how students should use and understand those skills and dimensions in the context of this opportunity.
Intro to SAIL - May 1, 2018 "Learning Everywhere" ConferenceNortheasternSAIL
Grounded in personal goals, practices, and motivations as educators, this session introduces participants to the SAIL initiative and its origins, vision, and framework for supporting holistic, lifelong, and experiential learning. Participants from across Northeastern will explore ways to engage in Northeastern’s evolving ecosystem, leverage the shared language of the SAIL framework, collaborate across units, and consider the transformative potential of our learners acting as educators (while recognizing our own growth as learners).

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

SAIL Framework (Five Dimensions)
18. Identifying the Intersections
Example: Service-Learning
In this example, service-learning teaching assistants are supporting their faculty,
students, and community partners.
• Navigating the goals/needs of each of the stakeholder groups (whose needs
take precedence?)
• How to advocate for stakeholders in relation to one another
• How to support faculty in project management as well as meaning-making,
facilitation, and reflection
• The larger role they/their students are playing in the community/ies
surrounding Northeastern and beyond
• How to frame language in ways that are empowering for the community(ies)
where students are serving/partnering
• The relationship of the university to the community more broadly
19. Identifying the Intersections
In this example, disciplinary faculty help college students learn an
academic discipline.
• Content decisions—what and how much

• Role of coach vs. role of judge
• Inclusivity – In sources/perspectives and teaching practices
• Grading – Student effort vs. objective criteria vs. participation
• How to spend time in and out of class
• Work/Life balance
Example: Instructional Development
20. SECTION B – Identify the Intersections
1. Review the definitions and characteristics of each SAIL
dimension.
2. Review your responses on the reflection worksheet.
3. For each response, using the boxes in SECTION B, write
which dimension (if any) seems to most closely align with
the content of the response.
Complete SECTION B only.
21. Importance of the Intersections
This dimension is important to disciplinary faculty because…
…they need to apply learning theory, subject matter expertise, and flexible and strategic thinking to
design impactful learning experiences.
…they need to accommodate differences among learners and pursue inclusivity in their
sources/perspectives and practices so that all have equal access to education and so that diverse
perspectives are included.
…they need to equip learners to apply disciplinary knowledge in socially responsible ways to
continually work toward a more fair and just society.
…”we teach who we are;” therefore, our identities inevitably, and publicly, shape what we teach and
how we teach it, impacting our students.
…with all of the many demands of being a faculty member, longevity and effectiveness depend on
physical and emotional health, strong relationships, and a sense of meaning and purpose.
Example: Instructional Development
22. Importance of the Intersections
This dimension is important to Service-Learning Teaching Assistants because…
…they need to be able to problem-solve and think on their feet to not only manage all stakeholder
group’s expectations, but do so in a way that is alignment with program philosophy.
…they will be working with a wide variety of people with sometimes overlapping but sometimes
competing interests, goals, needs and timelines. Additionally, many of these people differ from the
S-LTA him/herself.
….they are advocating and assisting their faculty, students, and partners in ways to best work with
one another with the broader goal of building a better world through their pursuits, while
acknowledging and navigating university/community relationships.
…they will rely on a number of professional and personal skills regarding communication and
relationship-formation to effectively do their work.
…they will need to balance everyone’s expectations with their own other commitments, and doing
their work effectively relies upon their own physical and mental well-being.
Example: Service-Learning
23. “Problems cannot be solved with
the same mind set that created
them.” - Albert Einstein
SECTION C – Importance of the Intersections
Based on your responses in SECTION B, write a brief statement to explain
why each dimension is important to the work you are preparing your
learners to do.
Complete SECTION C only.
24. SECTION D – Learning Experience
What learning experience would make one of the
intersections you identified explicit to learners?
• What will the learners do?
• What is the prompt/framing?
• What will the learners express when they “get it”?
Examples: Reflection, discussion, exercise,
inquiry, case study, scenario, self-assessment.
25. SECTION D – Learning Experience
Example: Instructional Development
…they need to accommodate differences among learners and pursue
inclusivity in their sources/perspectives and practices so that all have equal
access to education and so that diverse perspectives are included.
…they need to equip learners to apply disciplinary knowledge in
socially responsible ways to continually work toward a more fair and
