Universal Design for Presenting is a presentation style designed to be inclusive and lessen the need for accommodations from the very beginning.  UDP addresses how to design visuals like PowerPoint and Prezzi, how to verbally present information, as well as a good rule of thumb for handouts that balances sustainability and accessibility.  This webinar will cover the history of Universal Design for Learning (upon which UDP is based), the ‘how-to’s, and common concerns that people have with presenting in UDP.  Additionally, the webinar will be presented in UDP style, so you can hear and see UDP in action.
