EDS4802 ASSIGNMENT 2 – FULL ANSWERS & REFERENCE (27 JUNE 2025)

Description

This assignment focuses on the promotion of accessibility for individuals with disabilities, particularly in educational settings. It begins by defining key terms such as accessibility, disability, access technology, and augmentative communication. It then discusses six practical factors to consider when improving accessibility, including inclusive teaching materials, positive attitudes, and accessible environments.

Using guidance from the World Health Report and other sources, the assignment outlines ways schools can support learners with various disabilities—such as providing additional support, building teacher capacity, and encouraging collaboration with families. Finally, it critically examines the three core principles of Universal Design for Learning (UDL) and illustrates how these can be applied to create inclusive learning experiences for all learners, regardless of ability.
