Universal Design for Learning (UDL) and intersectionality are two vital areas of education that need greater attention. UDL is a set of "guidelines that offer a set of concrete suggestions that can be applied to any discipline or domain to ensure that all learners can access and participate in meaningful, challenging learning opportunities." (The UDL Guidelines, 2021)
Intersectionality is defined as "multiple avenues of discrimination that people face when their identity encompasses a number of minority categories, connected to things like race, gender, class and sexuality." (Katz, 2017)
The interplay of UDL and intersectionality can significantly impact a learning community. Learners that are effected by the compounding of intersectionality can help be supported by UDL Guidelines.
I have created a Adobe Captivate project that allows you to navigate between different resources for both Universal Design for Learning and Intersectionality. In this project there are links and embedded videos explaining the both concepts. Once you have reviewed the resources in the project, there is a quiz that you can take to test your learning. This is my first Adobe Captivate project and there were many challenges along the way. I will be looking forward to refining my content, navigation, and overall ability to provide unique learning opportunities through this technology.
