Introduction to UDL, HLPs, & Accessibility in K-12 CS Education

This microcredential course is an introduction to strategies to support all learners, including those with disabilities, in K-12 CS Education. This course will explore many questions including why students with disabilities should be included in K-12 CS education as well as an introduction to effective instructional practices for all learners (e.g., Universal Design for Learning, High Leverage Practices, and accessibility). The course will present research-supported instructional practices and frameworks to reduce barriers to participation for all learners in K-12 CS education.

Many young children in a large open room work independently on hands-on coding exercises with robots as adults mill about and look on.
