In Creating Inclusive Learning Opportunities in Higher Education,
Sheryl Burgstahler provides a practical, step-by-step guide for
putting the principles of universal design into action. The book
offers multiple ways to access, engage with, and transform the
higher education environment: making physical spaces welcoming to
students of all abilities; creating digital learning and assistive
technology programs that meet the needs of all users; developing
universal design in higher education (UDHE) syllabi, assessments
and teaching practices that minimize the need for academic
accommodations; and institutionalizing universal design supports
and services. A follow-up to Universal Design in Higher Education,
Burgstahler's new book will be a valuable resource for leaders,
faculty, and administrators who are interested in acquiring the
tools needed to create barrier-free learning environments. Filled
with applications, examples, recommendations, and above all, a
framework in which to conceptualize UDHE, this volume will help
educators meet the design needs of all students and honor the
principles of diversity and inclusivity.
This second edition of the classic Universal Design in Higher
Education is a comprehensive, up-to-the-minute guide for creating
fully accessible college and university programs. The second
edition has been thoroughly revised and expanded, and it addresses
major recent changes in universities and colleges, the law, and
technology. As larger numbers of people with disabilities attend
postsecondary educational institutions, there have been comparable
greater efforts to make the full array of classes, services, and
programs accessible to all students. This revised edition provides
both a full survey of those measures and practical guidance for
schools as they work to turn the goal of universal accessibility
into a reality. As such, it makes an indispensable contribution to
the growing body of literature on special education and universal
design. This book will be of particular value to university and
college administrators, and to special education researchers,
teachers, and activists.
