Continuing the conversation of UDL, we discuss how to incorporate Disability Studies as critical pedagogy.  Deconstructing statements related to diversity and unpacking problematic notions related to disability in postsecondary education, participants will consider how crip theory and disability studies as method can expand their philosophy of teaching to evolve inclusion within the classroom, whether online or in person.  

Facilitated by Dr. Nick Winges-Yanez (Texas Center for Disability Studies) and Dr. Nazanin Heydarian (Steve Hicks School of Social Work)
