Stanford Center for Innovations in Learning (SCIL) “Futures of Learning” Lecture Series present "Teaching Every Student: Universal Design for Learning in the Digital Age," a lecture by David Rose, co-founder of the Center for Applied Special Technology.
Modern neuroscience is dramatically revealing that what we call "learning" is highly diverse - both within and across individuals. Traditional educational materials and learning environments are dominated by uniformity and rigidity. In his lecture, Dr. Rose will explore the great advantages of digital learning materials to respond adaptively and positively to diversity. This presentation covers the cognitive neuroscience framework for understanding individual differences in learning, and provides some examples and guidelines for using digital learning environments that are effective in meeting these challenges.
