ALT Ep 108: Engaging Cultural Teaching with Tolu Noah- Photo of Dr. Tolu Noah, Logo of Think UDL podcast, and quotation from Dr. Noah: ""Another reflection and discussion activity I had my students do was reflecting on their cultural values. So thinking about things like, are you more time oriented or event oriented? Do you tend to conceal vulnerability? Or are you more willing to expose your vulnerability and so on. And I think this also helps students to connect with each other and better understand why people may respond to the same situation in very different ways."

ALT Think UDL Ep 97: Community is the Key to Accessibility with Mark Nichols with Headshot of Mark Nichols and Quotation: "For folks who are neurodiverse, I found that they are oftentimes a lot more in touch with how they learn and what they need to learn. We're talking about autism, ADHD, OCD, dyslexia, PTSD, right. And for folks who who have those cognitive differences, they really are going to be much more effective if they can structure environments where they can learn in a certain way. We get some people who've accomplished some really amazing things. And along the way they've learned how they work, they've given themselves license to be a little bit flexible in what they do."

We need to use the engagement part of UDL through role modeling. So in other words, I make mistakes, and you make mistakes. And here are the things that we can make out of the broken pieces."
