Creating Inclusive Learning Environments by harnessing AI and Implementing UDL principles

Join Danielle to explore how artificial intelligence (AI) and Universal Design for Learning (UDL) can reshape education to create truly inclusive learning environments. This session will demonstrate how tools like Texthelp's Read&Write, OrbitNote, and Equatio empower every student, from those with additional needs to high achievers, by offering personalised, accessible support. Learn how AI simplifies challenges such as literacy, language barriers, and cognitive load, while UDL principles ensure these solutions are necessary for some and useful for all.
