Abstract

Diverse learners are increasingly present in Flemish higher education (Belgium) and represent a significant percentage of the student body. Universal design for learning (UDL) offers a convenient framework to design inclusive classes and services that embrace the needs of diverse learners. This chapter presents the inspirational case study of Odisee University of Applied Sciences, a Flemish higher education institution that increasingly implements universal design principles in its educational policy and practices. The value of implemented measures in the domain of curriculum development, teaching and learning, and assessment will be discussed and analyzed through the UDL lens, as well as focus points and directions to take.
