摘要
This paper offers post-secondary instructors an opportunity to think about teaching practices and strategies for meaningful inclusion of students with learning disabilities (SLD) in post-secondary environments (PSE). Utilizing the narratives of the authors and building on the principles of Universal Design for Learning (UDL), it provides recommendations for effective inclusive pedagogy for instructors to consider. These recommendations are framed by the three main UDL guidelines of multiple means of engagement, representation, and of action and expression (CAST, 2011). By approaching teaching and assessment in this way, instructors may engage learners authentically, thus reducing the potential for disengagement and subsequent underachievement. This may also facilitate an equitable environment where students can participate in meaningful ways. Finally, instructors may have more time available in class to address student questions and provide support.Cet article offre aux instructeurs et aux instructrices d'enseignement post-secondaire une opportunite pour reflechir aux pratiques et aux strategies d'enseignement qui favorisent une inclusion significative des etudiants et des etudiantes ayant des difficultes d'apprentissage dans les environnements post -secondaires. Grace aux recits des auteurs et s'appuyant sur les principes de la Conception universelle de l'apprentissage, l'article fournit des recommandations pour une pedagogie inclusive efficace que les instructeurs et les instructrices peuvent prendre en consideration. Ces recommandations comprennent trois lignes directrices principales : multiples moyens d'engagement, representation, action et expression (CAST, 2011). En abordant l'enseignement et l'evaluation de cette maniere, les instructeurs et les instructrices peuvent faire participer les apprenants et les apprenantes de maniere authentique, et par la reduire le risque d'absence de participation et d'echec scolaire. Ceci pourrait egalement faciliter un environnement equitable ou les etudiants et les etudiantes peuvent participer le manieres significatives. Pour finir, les instructeurs et les instructrices peuvent avoir davantage de temps disponible en classe pour repondre aux questions des etudiants et des etudiantes et leur offrir du soutien.
