Use Prototype and Feedback Template, provided below, to begin drafting your inclusive AI-supported learning activity. Focus on creating a low-fidelity prototype – a simplified version of your idea – and define how you will gather feedback to improve it.
4.3 How to Plan Your Inclusive Lesson with UDL and SAMR?
Discover how to turn inclusive learning ideas into practical lesson designs by applying the UDL and SAMR frameworks. Learn to create engaging, technology-enhanced activities that address diverse learner needs and promote meaningful inclusion.
👉 Start with the video for a quick overview.
👉 Now, read the document to explore the topic in more depth.
👉 Finish with the task to reflect and apply what you’ve learned.
Download UDL & SAMR Lesson Planning Template provided below. Think about a lesson you teach (or plan to teach) and identify an area where students could benefit from more inclusive and engaging approaches.
1. Briefly describe your lesson topic and the diversity of learners in your group (e.g., students with reading difficulties, multilingual students, students with attention challenges).
2. Select a digital or AI-based tool (e.g., Quizlet, ChatGPT, Edpuzzle, Padlet, Microsoft Immersive Reader).
3. Apply UDL principles: Explain how your activity will provide multiple means of:
– Engagement (how students get motivated),
– Representation (how information is presented),
– Action and Expression (how students demonstrate learning).
4. Apply the SAMR model: Briefly classify your activity according to one of the four SAMR levels (Substitution, Augmentation, Modification, Redefinition) and explain your reasoning.
👉 Finish with the task to reflect and apply what you’ve learned.
In this task, you will apply the ideation techniques introduced in this unit to generate creative and inclusive ideas for your own teaching practice. Using one or more ideation methods, generate three ideas for making your current or future course more inclusive with the help of AI tools. You can focus on:
– Improving accessibility for students with disabilities, – Supporting language diversity,
– Increasing engagement and participation,
– Offering multiple means of representation or assessment
Instructions:
1.Think of a course or learning activity you currently teach or plan to teach.
2. Choose one ideation technique and briefly describe how you used it.
3. Generate three ideas for making your course more inclusive.
4. Write your answers in the provided template (download below).
Tip: For inspiration, revisit the AI-ENABLE Collection of Good Practices and the AI Tools Reference List you explored in the previous unit. Both resources are available on the project website and offer practical examples and tools to help you generate inclusive learning ideas.
4.1 How to Use Design Thinking for Inclusive Education?
Discover how Design Thinking can help you create more inclusive learning experiences by focusing on learners’ needs, challenges, and creative solutions.
👉 Start with the video for a quick overview.
👉 Now, read the document to explore the topic in more depth.
👉 Finish with the task to reflect and apply what you’ve learned.
The first step of the Design Thinking process is Empathize. This means deeply understanding the needs, feelings, and challenges of your students—especially those who may face barriers in learning. In this task, you will identify one student profile from your own teaching experience (real or imagined) and reflect on their learning experience from an inclusive perspective. Please download and complete the Empathy Mapping Template, provided below.
3.3 How AI Tools Support Action & Expression in Learning?
Learn how AI tools empower students to express what they know in different ways and take greater control of their learning. Explore how AI supports writing, creativity, self-reflection, and skill development through tools that provide personalized feedback and multimodal expression options.
👉 Start with the video for a quick overview.
👉 Now, read the document to explore the topic in more depth.
👉 Finish with the task to reflect and apply what you’ve learned.
Think of one activity or assignment in your course where students could express their knowledge in more creative or flexible ways. Which AI tool mentioned in this unit could help them demonstrate their learning (e.g. through writing, visuals, video, or reflection)?
