We have heard your request to learn more about how to support students with intellectual disability in college courses as well as how to engage the college professors and instructors who have students with intellectual disabilities enrolled in their courses.

Below is the link to a recent FCIHE Faculty Professional Development webinar that speaks directly to your requests.  Please share the link widely.  It is well worth the time to hear how three postsecondary education faculty from Florida and South Carolina not only support the students with intellectual disabilities enrolled in their courses, but through a Universal Design for Learning lens, are enhancing their courses to better support all students. Filled with examples and resources, this is a must-see webinar.

Length: 55 minutes

Topics Covered: Course content and reasonable adaptations for student learning outcomes, Universal Design for Learning (UDL), navigating student engagement and expectations, student contracts, student accountability, student assessment, and more.
