Conference Program

Part 2- Access for All in Universally Designed for Learning Early Childhood Classrooms
Date & Time: Thursday, April 27, 2023 1:00 PM - 3:45 PM ET
Location: Madison Bldg - Chesterfield (Location for this event is updated.)

Part 1 and Part 2 will explore different content and each will include a different make-and-take

This session will provide specific strategies designed to build skills to meet the needs of all young children through a universally designed for learning classroom. Participants will learn how to locate and build resources for their classrooms or practices that are both accessible and relevant for the young children served. We will explore digital libraries and other ready-to-go accessible materials that engage all learners as well as tools that allow assistive technology providers and educators to tailor their materials to the specific needs of their students. Participants will have the opportunity to examine their current educational practices in order to improve access to education for all children. A hands-on make-and-take during both Part 1 and Part 2 will allow participants to locate and create accessible and relevant materials to take back to their schools and classrooms.

Whilst AT Network strives to adhere to the accepted guidelines and standards for accessibility and usability, it is not always possible to do so when linking to documents and sites outside of our site. We are continually seeking out solutions that will bring these other areas up to the same level of overall web accessibility.
