READ

After / as you read, consider the following questions, and keep track of your responses. Consider using a technique from the Reflect section for this:

  • Thinking back to your responses in the Reflect section of this week, how did you define equity? How are you thinking about it as and after you read?
  • What does Indar mean by an equity-based framework? How does Lazarus-Stewart’s or Washington’s definition of equity and justice challenge or confirm that definition?
  • What is Universal Design For Learning (UDL)? For Indar, why is it necessary to develop a specifically equity-based approach to UDL, and what does that look like?
  • How do the definitions in these readings compare to / differ from the ones that you began to articulate during Part I?
  • What questions did this set of readings generate for you about equity, accessibility, and their intersections?

When you’ve finished with this, tell us something that you learned or ask a question that you have in the #equity-and-access Slack channel. Please make sure that you tell us that you’re working on Part 2 of Module 1, since everyone will be working through this workshop at different paces.

Later in this module, you will be asked to share your longer responses and reflections with your co-participants. Please keep track of your responses to the questions above.
